Suppressing *W* messages in PDL

[Pickering, John (NORBORD)]

What happens if you remove the offending message from
pdlmsge.[group].cognos? By remove I mean replace with spaces rather than
delete since the relative record number is the key. Since the "*W*" is not
in the message file I'd guess that your output from pdl would still have the
same 400 lines of warnings but they'd be simply the "*W*" which would make
the other errors and warnings easier to spot. And you'd need to remember to
do this for each new version of PH.

Bob,

Your understanding is correct but there is NO way we can correct the cause
of this message.

Wish there was a way of telling PDL "I know what the limit for a single and
double integer is. If I exceeded it then its my own fault. Don't warn me
about it."
