Re: RPG ILE Recursivity RNX8888

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the answer.

That's what I thought at first but the weird thing is that I got the RNX8888
escape message with the other program, which is also *NEW.
The only noticeable difference would be the size of the programs plus the
one that gave me the RNX8888 uses files.
