I've heard that argument before, and I'm not sure I can come up with
examples that couldn't be configured. I accept that there are non-simple
MOVEs, but not sure that they couldn't be transformed into an eval
statement, even MOVES from numeric to string fields or versa-vice.
Maybe I should check the boards before raising this issue. Sorry. Any
question as to which list it should be in?

Hi Duane
As to why the ADD, Z-ADD, MOVE are not converted? For one thing, those do
not have a direct equivalent opcode in free-form - no MOVE, for example. It
does seem that Z-ADD could easily be changed to an assignment - MOVE
operations are so varied in their use and result that changing to
assignments is difficult in the extreme.

Agreed. Although, I wish more shops would agree to allow more recentcoding techniques like removal of the EVAL opcode. Even that would be an
