Did this ever bring back old memories :) Anyone remember 'A' in column 66,
or '__ __ 99' when scribbling RPG on a pad of paper (for later entry when
in the office as there was no access to the system from home in the
70s/early 80s)? lol
Wow Bruce, that's impressive memory. The only columns I know for sure
are columns 6 and 7. And 81, I guess.
I do remember writing '__ __ 99' on paper!
But what I really want to know is: Who all in this thread was sure
enough about how COMP works that they didn't have to write a little
program to verify it?
I had to try both OPM and ILE RPG to be sure. (Of course, everyone was
correct.)
Here's my OPM RPG program, showing off my MOVEA skills!
C *ENTRY PLIST
C PARM V1 155
