Re: Compile failed when try to do return not SUCCESSFUL where SUCCESSFULis declared as const

I believe I've seen this before... I think that  you need to change to
this.

D SUCCESSFUL      c                   const('1')

D SUCCESSFUL      c                   const(*on)

 * test return with not SUCCESSFUL

C                   return    not SUCCESSFUL
P proc1           E


I'm getting this:
Msg id  Sv Number Seq     Message text

RNF7421 30     12 001200  Operands are not compatible with the type of
operator.


If I changed SUCCESSFUL to be a variable, it compile ok.   Any reason
why I can't do "return not constBoolean"?
