Re: "If %scan(x:y)" is not valid???

How about a two line subprocedure in a service
program.  I have many that do validation against a
file and only have a setll and a return %equal.  Then
any program that needs to do this validation can just
call VldRailroad(Road) and not have to include the
file in that program.  This simplifies program code
because each programmer doesn't have to know how to do
the validation.  Some validation routines are only the
two lines but some are much larger because the
validation is not so simple.
