Exactly.  This is an issue we came up against on a number of occasions:  either 
modify the code so that it was more or less useable, and forget about ever using
the CASE tool, or just shrug and tell the user that it can't be done.

What unfortunately started to happen was that we began to essentially write RPG 
code within the CASE tool, re-writing most of the generated code.  Eventually it
dawned on us that it was easier to write RPG code in SEU, and we got AS/SET 
thrown out.
