To the best of my knowledge you cannot define an indicator constant.

And I cannot think of any reason why you would want to define one. There are
only two that you could define and they are supplied by the figurative
constants *On and *Off.

In your example, why can't you just return *Off?

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"?
