One other thing to note that I have found. In creation of a
lot of variable definitions (mostly expressions), functions
and so on, the use of left and right parenthesis seems to
have gotten a lot stricter. Most of the code that I have
taken from older versions (which was not code created by me)
have had a lot of failures because of this. From what I have
seen so far is that you should always define Var's as
SET VAR varname DATATYPE = (.var1 + .var2)
and so on where in a lot of our old code it was just
SET VAR varname = .var1 + .var2
This has even cropped up in reports and forms as well.
Sorry to give any bad news if this is a gotcha
