RE: Regarding DBGVIEW(*STMT) in CRTBNRPG

Hi Sean,

Most times you can't fix the problem immediately (that's my experience)
when a user is running into. So then the program will crash even if you
are looking together with that user.
I prefer to make a dump, and yes, eventually repair broken data.
Then recompile the program with source and try to reproduce the error
with testdata. 

Best regards,
Arco
