Re: Procedure Initialization

That's what I figured, Joe, but it's nice to have confirmation. Plus, I never came across the STATIC keyword, but I can see situations where that would be useful. Another bullet in the holster.

Thanks.

Apparently I never thought I needed INZ( ) in a procedure's D-spec, but
this morning I was writing one where it fits. If I code:

D Field S 9p 2 INZ(*Zeros)

does "Field" get set to zeros each time the procedure is invoked?

The INZ keyword gets invoked every time you go into the procedure UNLESS you
specify the STATIC keyword. If you specify STATIC, the INZ only gets
invoked once (and the field retains its value between calls).
