Re: Callp question

Since many states use the same 'basic' tax system, surely simplest to do
this from the mainline:

StateTaxes(StateCode)

and then in the StateTaxes procedure, simply have separate procedures (or,
gasp, subroutines) for the 'exception' states, otherwise do standard
processing, e.g.:

select;
when StateCode = 'NY';
StateTaxesNY();
when StateCode = 'CT';
StateTaxesCT();
when StateCode = 'CA';
StateTaxesCA();
other
...processing for all 'standard' states goes here...
endsl;

Interesting.

StateTaxes(StateCode);

or

Select;
case when StateCode = 'NY';
callp StateTaxesNY;
case when StateCode = 'NJ';
callp StateTaxesNJ;
...
EndSl

or

If StateCode = 'NY';
callp StateTaxesNY;
elseif StateCode = 'NJ';
callp StateTaxesNJ;
elseif StateCode = ...

Personally, I'd rather keep the main logic as simple as possible, and
put the state tax calculation differences in the procedure.
