Re: Overflow and INOF with Externam Printer file

This is sounding like a library list issue. Are you sure that the
compiler is finding the external printer file You think it is finding?
Have you looked at the external printer file to see what is in it? That
may be quite revealing for you.

I must be going crazy... here's an example that works:
FFD001P1 O E PRINTER USROPN

Then in the compile listing, I search for *INOF and low and behold it
magically appears:

Global Field References:
Field Attributes References (D=Defined M=Modified)
*INOF N(1) 344 372

The two references for it are IF statements (ie, IF *INOF print
headings...)

I asked a guy I used to work with years ago and he said "I don't know...
it
just works in all our programs too!"
I know there's something. But years of copying code is making it slip by
my mind how to get that darned thing to appear. And now it's not that I
have to do it, it's that it's driving me crazy as to why it doesn't work.

I don't see anything in the DDS for the printer file either that
references
INOF.
