Our system does the 1=Y, 2=N thing too. It is so that folks who are keying on 
the keypad all day can stay on the keypad as much as possible without having to 
go look for the Y or N keys. Keeps up productivity. Or at least that is the 
theory.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

I don't know why someone would have thought that Y equals 1 and N equals 2 
that's just odd to me.
The code is confusing enough to make me just want to say, if they entered a Y 
exit, if they entered a N continue or whatever.
That's job security right there!

So you can answer y or n or 1 or 2 to this pompt, and if it is n or 2 you are 
aken to ENTER.PROBLEM.CODES

ubject: [U2] Unusual code

n my 25 years in Pick I have never seen a construction like this to test for Y 
r N or whatever it's doing.
hat is this doing?  What is this 1]2 and <1,1> doing ?  Why do I need this?

297: CHECK:   PRINT @(0,17): "Are the problem codes correct (Y/N)? " :
298:          INPUT ANSWER
299:          LOCATE ANSWER IN '�Y�N�1�2'<1,1> SETTING TEST ELSE PRINT BELL
300:          LOCATE ANSWER IN '�Y�1'<1,1> SETTING TEST ELSE
301:             PRINT @(0,13):CLEAR.REST.SCREEN ; GOTO ENTER.PROBLEM.CODES
