RE: compile error on %lookup where array is the return value

You are right, it compiled normally when const/value keyword is present.
Otherwise it failed.  That is strange.

You forced me to look again Mel - it appears to work because of the
const keyword on the proto for MyLookup.

getArray is a function that returns an array and yet is acceptable as a
parm to MyLookup.  If you remove the const keyword it will not compile.
