Re: Using MONITOR For The First Time

Fellow RPGers,


I have the opportunity to use the MONITOR opcode. I am converting an input file from 8 digits to *ISO. The analyst got an error when testing so I don't have the exact error code in the documentation supplied. I coded it thus:

// Convert The Creation Date To ISO For Comparison To The Work Creation Date
Monitor; // Monitor For Date Error
ASDF_ISO = %Date(DATECRT :*ISO); // Convert Create Date To ISO
On-Error *Program;
ASDF_ISO = %Date(); // Default To Today's Date
EndMon;

I will default to today's date if the Monitor detects an error. Is the On-Error *Program correct usage in this example?

Thanks,
