Nothing wrong with subroutines. If you have *INZSR or *PSSR, you can't
convert those to procedures.


good. get rid of them. replace *INZSR with a procedure that is passed a
control block type data struct or series of main procedure variables you
intend to pass from procedure to procedure.

*PSSR. I dont think I have ever coded one. Use MONITOR instead.


Also, any subroutines with a RETURN in them
will only exit the subprocedure when they are converted, and not return to
the calling program, as was intended, meaning you'll have to rewrite the
logic.


or return a parm telling the caller to end the program.
