GLB.STATUS (GS)
Syntax
GLB.STATUS (GS)
The GLB.STATUS; command directs the system error status of a command result to a
specified data item, instead of using the System Data item GLB.STATUS.
The GLB.STATUS; command is used as follows:
$ The GLB.STATUS; command is associated with another command, and it must appear
on the same logic line as that command (or as part of the last line if the command
spans several lines).
$ Before the associated command is executed, the data item specified by the
GLB.STATUS; command is cleared (set to the value of the System Data item
GLB.SPACES).
$ The result is moved to the data item after the execution of the associated command or
completion of the loop created by the associated command.
$ Valid associated commands are:
v ADD;
v ATTRIBUTE;
v COMPUTE; and COMPUTE.FROM;
v DATE.CONVERT;
v DETERMINE; commands
v DIVIDE;
v LOOK.UP; commands
v MATCH;
v MOVE;
v MULTIPLY;
v SUBTRACT;
v WAKE.UP;
$ For LDA, you must use GS; (and not GLB.STATUS;). GLB.STATUS is always
interpreted as the System Data item, and may cause a syntax error.
Note: The GLB.STATUS; command has an additional effect when included as part of
the MOVE; command. See the MOVE; command for further details.
