RE: Can an RPG module call another RPG module?

I believe it goes thusly:

An OPM RPG program can only be in the call stack of a job one time.  If
PGMA issues 'Call PGMA', an error ensues.

I haven't tried to do so with ILE RPG, so I'm not sure, but I would expect
the results to be similar.

ILE Procedures _can_ call themselves.  Similar to C, the arguments to the
function call are pushed onto an internal stack, and then the function is
given control.

I have too, but I just looked and it was an RPG CGI (eRPG) procedure that
called itself.  It sorts data by column heading and redisplays
itself.  Maybe you can't recursively call a program?

Are you sure about that?  I'm almost positive I've done this before.
