I agree. On the few cases that I've run into RETURN TO, I've unprogrammed it. Part of the purpose of RETURN TO is that MV doesn't have the POP command whereby you can remove one of the GOSUB stack references and 'return to' the prior GOSUB statement. Being one who can use GOTO properly and can mi

Yes, but the example had only 3 tested conditions. Changing the number to suit a method invalidates the original comparison. It's like 5+5 versus 5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5 whereby you change your method from adding to multiplying. If it's argued that every IF statement 'could' grow to a 'huge' number'

Some of us have Unix servers. The last time that I looked (a few years ago) the limitation was networking. That is, a "Professional" ($800) version of Visual.Studio was needed to do anything over a network such as launching an application from a mapped drive. Microsoft's CLR (Common Language Runt

Hi Brenda, I'd recommend you at least have the option of RAID 0+1. We use a combination of RAID 0+1 and RAID 5. The data that's heavily accessed goes on RAID 0+1 volumes and the less-busy stuff goes on RAID 5. Other things to consider are the amount of RAM installed (systems fly when entire file

That WOULD make sense, but it's not indicated in LeRoys's reply. And there are NO instructions on how to package this all up and run it under glassfish or tomcat. I can ( and probably will, now ) dive into the subdirectories to see if a jar/war file has been created, and if so, try to deploy it on

Ray, at the risk of another 'holy war', please don't encourage the use of "RETURN TO" - particularly with large complex groups of programs with lots of subroutines, this can lead to "return stack overflow" scenarios that are extremely hard to debug (having cleaned up a lot of these as the 'next

Mark, Although I usually agree with you, this time I have to disagree. Using a CASE statement in this way seems a very clear way to handle something, especially when you're checking for a huge number of reasons to "disqualify" something from happening. Have you ever programmed the Federal Fi

IMHO, using CASE as a replacement for IF's is extraneous. Meaning a harder alternate than what should be the simpler form. CASE statements resolve to being IF statements when compiled anyway. CASE statements are best used for their original purpose. That is to evaluate multiple conditions and only
