Hello,

we have a system with V6R1 and installed RPG OA 5733ROA.
if i try to put the Handler in the F-specs the PDM says, that it doesnt know the Keyword.
If i compile it, it throws errors und does not create the object.

The first error in the SF marks, that there are missing " ' " in the Line
HANDLER('PROFOUNDUI(HANDLER)')
But they are there ?

The Profound Lib is in the *LIBL and the PFG Lib also.

Does anybody has an idea?

In SEU (and also the WDSc/RDi editors), this error message will always display, even if RPG OA is installed.

This is because IBM has not updated the editors in 6.1 to recognize the keyword. IBM has said that they will not do this for 6.1, although the keyword will be recognized in 7.1.

Now, this is just for the editors. If you compile the program, the compiler should recognize the keyword and compile the program successfully if you have RPG OA properly installed.

To workaround the problem in the editors, you can exit the source member and come back in. If you do not modify the file specification again, the editor will not show the error message.
