RE: Error on %EDITC

["Bale, Dan" <DBale@xxxxxxxx>]

I tested your example and came up fine.  However I made a few assumptions:

I assumed that D3PARNT1 is alphanumeric with a length of at least 16 bytes.
I assumed that SQLFILEKEY is numeric.
I assumed that there was nothing to the right of the equal sign on line 752
(if you were editing in 24x80 mode, you might not catch this).

HTH,
- Dan Bale
