It is missing in the 3.0.0 docs as well. And, I have an old copy of the IBM Object Rexx files on my system. I don't see it in the REXXREF.hlp doc either. Looks like it may not ever have been there. > I was going to remove the ETMODE and EXMODE options since we dropped > the DBCS support, but the instruction isn't even there. The OPTIONS settings of ETMODE and EXMODE ae mentioned around page 73, right before the the DO instruction starts. The OPTIONS instruction is mentioned under the Required String Values section > Currently, > the OPTIONS instruction is supported, but it's essentially a NOP > because there are no options we recognize now that the DBCS ones have > been removed.

I don't think I ever even knew of that instruction. -- Mark Miesfeld ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
