Hans,

Most of your posts make perfect sense, but this time, I'm afraid I haven't
got a clue what your on about.  Could you please explain what you mean by
this?  Which external names are you referring to?  Files, formats, fields,
programs, procedures?  And what do you mean by 'normal RPG names'?  Luckily
I know what character literals are :-)
