Knowing how many arguments a subroutine is expecting is a good way to check/confirm that the call you are about to make isn't going to blow up in your face!

I was just trying to think of a reason why I'd want specifically to know how many arguments the subroutine has.
That is, why was this particular fact chosen as the returned status code ?

Hi,

LeRoy Dreyfuss said that you would have to change 52 to 12 for EXIST to work.

The globally cataloged programs have an extra 40 characters put on the front, so that would cause a problem.

@RECORD[1,4] is a count of the number of times the program has been used.

@RECORD[5,8] is who cataloged it

@RECORD[13,4] are the date and time (I think)


Regards, Keith
