Running Qdesign/Quick in Debug

[Dan Osborne]

Ron,

Debug on some platforms is almost unuseable - on AIX using 7.33 I have to
compile the code with all use files expanded else the source lines displayed
bear no relation to reality.

The easiest way to achieve this is to
 1. comment out the build statement in the source
 2. qdesign debug nolist
 3. use <file>
 4. rev
 5. un comment the build statement and exit editor

Hopefully you get the idea - give it a whirl

I tend to use info = expr now response unless a program is really baffling
me.

Good luck
