Mark,

It's called a non-nested IF... <grin>

Rory

IF Status = 'A' ;
READE Key FileA ;
IF %EOF(FileA);
Key = NewKeyFromFileA ;
Status = 'B';
ENDIF ;
ENDIF;

IF Status = 'B' ;
READE Key FileB ;
ENDIF;

IF ...
ENDIF;

Rob,

If we're requesting SELECT enhancements, how about a CONTINUE opcode,
which would be the opposite of C's break opcode?

Example:

SELECT ;
WHEN Status = 'A' ;
READE Key FileA ;
IF %EOF(FileA);
Key = NewKeyFromFileA ;
Status = 'B';
CONTINUE ;
ENDIF ;

WHEN Status = 'B' ;
READE Key FileB ;
CONTINUE ;

WHEN ...

ENDSL ;

This way results from a higher level WHEN can bubble down to tests later
on.
