David -

One of Murphy's laws (Lubarsky's law of cybernetic entomology) says: 'There
is always /one more/ bug'.

The meaning that I derive from this statement is that in a situation like
this one, (if never tested) your program could be sitting out there for
years, never executed, but the first time that it /does/ get executed the
bug will surface.

Even scarier would be if XXX210 actually did exist and had the parameters
defined as described.

In this case, you would get (as IBM describes) 'Unpredictable Results'...

Thanks all.

So the name XXX210 would be the program called if I did a CALLP
using the prototype in my module XXX110 compiled into program XXX110.
As the call is from a CLP this never happens.
The name XXX210 is never actually used.

It's just an accident waiting to happen!?
