RE: EVAL-CORR and 7.1

["Robert J. Mullis" <robertmullis99@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry for the confusion Scott.  I was confusing this error with
informational message about subfields that don't match will be ignored.  I
was using the wrong file to externally describe one of my datastructures.,

Thanks.

Hmm..  I don't know if this gave an error prior to 7.1 or not, but...

It seems to me that this SHOULD stop the compile.  It's telling you that
your EVAL-CORR will do absolutely nothing. Isn't that a big problem?

I mean, you wouldn't have coded it if you expected it to do nothing.  So
this should indicate that you made a mistake in your coding, and it's really
a good thing that the compiler caught it, right?

If you really just want to ignore the error because you don't care if the
eval-corr does something, you can just comment-out the eval-corr.
