Like many things, there are always some exceptions. In this case, I'll
do qualify.
Uumm,
Just wonder why not use the select or elesif vs else if.
Wouldn't this better?
if %found(file1) and %found(file2)
processA
elseif not %found(file1) and %found(file2)
processB
elseif %found(file1) and not %found(file2)
processC
else
// by default neither has been found
processD
endif;

Subject: RE: Standards question: What is your feeling about
%found&%eofvs. %found(file) & %eof(file) ?
Here is some code that is in one of our production programs
chain key1 file1:
chain key2 file2;
if %found(file1) and
%found(file2)
processA
else
if not %found(file1) and
%found(file2)
processB
else
if %found(file1) and
not %found(file2)
processC
else
// by default neither has been found
processD
endif;
endif;
endif;
and within each process there are other chains on other files
QUESTION: for those people who do NOT qualify with file names, how would
you handle this piece of logic?
