Hi All,

I've found a slick way to turn on trance nested deeply in my code
controlled by the NAME setting

In some code module I could say:

IF (CVAL('NAME')) = 'CustEditTrace' THEN
   TRACE
ENDIF


If I issue the command
SET NAME CustEditTrace 
at the R> before running my app (my app does not alter NAME)

Then when the code hits the test statement above it will start trace
mode.

Using NAME rather than a variable is very powerful.  I've greatly
enhanced my produtivity using this trick.  I've got these statement
troughout my code with different trigger names.

I just add them as I need them and never have to throw them away as
they only affect execution when one of the special names is used.
