Subject:      Invalid doublebyte error

I have created a workaround for the error I wrote to you about
yesterday. If you will recall I had a literal composed of HEX
characters that triggered an error under 6.02a. The error statement
was:

      48.01   ('~~~h ~' cat &msg_subject cat '         ');
  SYN1790: COL. 010 Invalid doublebyte data.

The workaround is:

declare &x as A6;
&x = hexval(&x,'FFFF0388000F');
..
 (&x       cat &msg_subject cat '"""""""""');

Now to find all the procedures where I have used HEX chars!
