I'm trying to retrofit a fix into an update subroutine called from lots
of places, 1 to 3 layers deep,  in legacy code.
Currently the subr writes many records, releasing each.
Sometimes it shouldn't release;  it should let the calling program
control that.
(By the way, stale memory records in calling programs is not an issue in
my particular case.  Yes, I thought about that.)

This is the reason "nested transactions" were invented.  *Sigh*
Don't suggest retrofitting UV's transaction logging
(START/COMMIT/ABORT).  I love it for new systems,  but I avoid
retrofitting it.


All I can think of is to execute "LIST.READU USER [self]" and parse,
but I have this vague idea that there is a basic command that I'm not
remembering.

Thanks,
Chuck Stevenson
