As an ex-change management person, I have to recommend you do not do that and indeed that you prohibit your programmers from using the CBL statements. (Even add a filter to the compile procedure to kick the CBL statements out!) You, as the change manager, want to be in exclusive control of the compile options. Maybe your best bet is just to automatically, in the compile procedure, pre- pend the source code of the programs that you need to compile with a set of CBL statements to set the options you require.
