RE: When was SELEC introduced?

I've got an original, though slightly worn, copy of the RPG Reference
Summary v2r2 manual and the SELEC statement is listed.  The date on the
manual is September 1992.

Subject: When was SELEC introduced?

Hi group,

in our December issue of COMMON Belgium News, there was an article about 
improving the performance of RPG SELEC statements (written by Ron Turull, 
and also publised on Search400.com in October last year).

The article started with "The SELEC opcode is a great, recently added 
feature in RPG..."

Then followed some example code in RPG III.

I'm planning to write a nasty email to COMMON Belgium that this is 2007, 
and RPG III is sooo 80's.  Besides, SELEC isn't that new, I believe.

However, I'd like to know when exactly SELEC was introduced to RPG. Google 
didn't turn up any relevant info.

Thanks in advance to anybody who can give me a clue.
