That weeds out 75% of your > audience! Oh for the record, I do agree with Jon. I too would prefer seeing use of varying length character strings and %LEN() (as well as procedures, descriptive long names, /FREE, etc.) in all published examples, since those are available on the majority of machines and are the preferred modern techniques. Otherwise, your books will get out of date *very* quickly as older machines are upgraded or replaced. You could always state in a footnote that CHECKR can be used in older, unsupported releases.
