Yeah, I got here about the same time, and I bet I had to drive further to get to work than you did, Bob. I remembered the situation with reserved words after Peter, you, and others pointed it out to me.

I'm definitely going to have to make a personal rule to finish that cup of coffee before I come to work (which I didn't this morning).

I've been working since 5:30 AM on something and didn't see that you already had
a response. I gotta stop using that Apple/Mac crap so early--it takes me away
from responding quickly. <tic>

Jerry,

Any field with an opcode name, must not be used in an ambiguous manner.
Select = A + B;
Chain = D / C;

Have to be:
EVAL select = A + B;
EVAL chain = D / C;

Have fun!

I am definitely losing it. Perhaps because it's early in the morning. I am getting the following error while entering the following line. While this snippet is from WDSc, I get the same error in SEU so this is not a WDSc issue.


Select = 'LIBR/NV' + %editc(l$cust : 'X');
RNF5507E A semi-colon is not specified at the end of a free-format specification.


This is odd because, as you can see, there is a semi-colon at the end of the line. Odd, too, is that the examples in the ILE RPG Reference manual are in fixed format, while nearly every other %bif is in /free format.
