BUT....You have to be careful that what is on the line doesn't have an ELSE clause of it's own which is optional..(ie. WRITE).
IF (COND) THEN WRITE SOMETHING ON F.FILE,ID ELSE RELEASE F.FILE,ID which needs to be IF (CONT) THEN WRITE SOMETHING ON F.FILE,ID END ELSE RELEASE F.FILE,ID END I remember once trying to figure out why my locks were never being released, if compiled with the ELSE as a clause of then WRITE, and the IF with no ELSE clause at all (This was on a Prime, but I don't take chances anymore).
