Usually in a function, so it takes only one line of code at each "critical" point. And a function has access to SIGL, so it can record the point of error. (But beware of Rexx's negative RC.)
I still see no point in "lc = RC". "IF RC > maxcc THEN maxcc = RC" does as well. -- gil ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
