As I understand it, support for PROC is withdrawn as of today and unless 
this has changed recently, then after midnight PDT today, all the PROCS 
will just abort with:

"Please replace your PROC with a BASIC program as PROCS are no longer 
supported."

Given this, you may wish to look at buying my PROC to BASIC conversion 
system, which is charged out at a rate of $250 per proc or $1 per line; 
well, I have to make a living somehow guys.

Some systems may have escaped this disable flag with the loading of 
various patches or if in fact you were too lazy to upgrade anything and 
so did not get the patches, which were released after jBASE 3.1.4.2009. 
Fortunately, there is an easy way to determine whether your procs will 
stop working or not. All you need do is run this jBC program, which has 
the advantage of not needing a PROC to determine failure or not, but 
relies on a quirk of the jBC compiler and runtime:

AP="76,79,79,70,32,76,73,82,80,65"
procStep=1
LOOP
   C = FIELD(AP, ",", procStep++)
WHILE C # "" DO
   CRT CHAR(C):
REPEAT
CRT


If this program runs and does not print anything, then your PROCS will 
be disabled at midnight tonight. If you see a string output, then your 
procs will be fine, but the message given is in reverse polish 
instructions, which you can manually decode.

Hope this helps,

Jim
