PM:
The GOTO is bothering me, so the question is - would you code this
different? This seems simple and straight-forward, but in your
opinion is there a better way?


/* Check data area to see if job is running */
DOUNTIL COND(&CHECK *NE '1')
RTVDTAARA DTAARA(DATAAREA) RTNVAR(&CHECK)
IF COND(&CHECK *EQ '1') THEN(DO)
/* wait 30 seconds and then try again */
DLYJOB DLY(30)
ENDDO
ENDDO
