Subject: FOR loop limit
I learned something new today.
Take the following program:
D x S 3P 0
D y S 3P 0
/free
*INLR = *On;
Y = 999;
For X = 1 To Y By 1;
EndFor;
Return;
/end-free
The program bombs with the dreaded "Message . . . . : The target for a
numeric operation is too small to hold the result (C G D F)."
I guess when the endfor is reached the last time through, it attempts to set
the value of x to 1,000.
Live and learn.
