You know I find it curiously interesting that using true and false has caused such an uproar.
Assuming wFlagOK is defined as an indicator no. You know what they say about making assumptions though. It could be defined as a 1A in which case your example works if '1' (*On) and '0' (*Off) are the only values placed in wFlagOK. Doesn't work if some other value is supplied.
Because I want to know Who's on first and I already know What's on second...
Does a double negative translate to true?
If not(WFlagNotOK)
Even by design?

Now I am curious. Can one avoid 1, *on, and *true altogether by just using:
if wFlagOK;
or
if not(wFlagOK);
?

Sorry you were so confused. My example did add the dimension of helping those steeped in other languages to understand.
Your suggestion works too assuming you are returning *On ('1') or *Off ('0').
