You could look into utilities like sccs which is a unix mechanism for source code control. It enables things like: if sqlca.sqlcode <> 0 then call catastrophy("%M%(%C%)",sqlca.sqlcode,"blah blah") end if After passing through sccs, %M% is replaced by the module name (e.g. myfunc.4gl) and %C% is replaced by the line number. Sccs offers all kinds of other possibilities, but I don't see a way to use it with "whenever error call". Of course, "whenever error stop" will cause 4gl to report the module name and line number, but then you lose control. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- John H.
