NEW QUIZ #2

[flowersoft at compuserve.com]

>> Quoting George Simon <george at flowersoftusa.com>:

>> What is the only 3-letter long variable that cannot be used
>> effectively in filePro?

> Would you be thinking of DIM, END or something else?

I thought you we not allowed to play.  Didn't you teach Ken everything he
knows? ;-)

Actually no, I was not thinking of DIM or END.  I was thinking of NOT.

I see no problem with DIM if you are not using arrays.
END cannot be used because you cannot assign a value to it.

I was thinking of NOT because even though you can assign a value to it, you
cannot check it to see what value it contains.

If: YES eq 22
Then: NOT=YES
If: NOT eq YES
Then: gosub SOANDSO

The first line passes syntax but not the second one.
