1) Following produces "invalid expression" :
EVALUATE Blah-blah
WHEN > "aa"
Sorry, William, don't agree. This is a straight conditional
expression which is valid
and not a partial expression. (As well as MF, MVS, ACU
accept this)
No - this will definitely get a compile error on MVS - and probably on ACU -
MF *does* document this as a valid extension.
To make it '85 Standard conforming, you would need to code:
Evaluate True
When Blah-Blah > "aa"
As long as "Blah-Blah" is the selection subject and the when begins with ">"
not a data-item, this is definitely partial-expression EVALUATE.
