I thought those were CL or maybe SQL additions - not RPG.

But I can't see them anywhere except in one announce doc that implies RPG.
But they are not there and I have not heard of any plans for them.

The announcement for TR2 listed new %BIF %LEFT & %RIGHT, but I don't
see them referenced at RPG Cafe. I have the TR applied, as well as
all the PTFs listed at RPG Cafe. The compiler doesn't recognize
%LEFT. Am I missing something?


TIA
