Some people are so rabid about 'Unused' warnings.  "I won't use the /copy
member.  It has variables I don't use.  Instead I'll copy and paste just
what I need."  I just want to thump them on the head.

Peter,

Don't you find it kind of strange, giving a meaningful name to an indicator
and then using it for an internally defined printer file, where you can
only
use its original, meaningless name?  Anyway, you might try to fool the
compiler with a statement like 'N97   SETON  97'.  I knew an S/36
programmer
once, who used this to get rid of 'Unused' warnings that way.
