Re: RPGV?

Scott,

I think that "easy" is relative. Let's say that I wanted to use the results of the %Scan() as a parm to another procedure. The loop method would require me to "manually" load the array with the position values in order to populate the array, then do the call. Having it inline is a lot more elegant to me.

Isn't it just as easy to call %scan() in a loop as it is to loop through
the contents of an array?
