Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?
That's only partially correct. The capture log file is put into _PH_ in the account that you originally logged in to. If you change accounts with LOGTO you will need to use the @ACCOUNT variable to find the original account path. The capture file name (on my windows system) is Z_nnn where is your pid (@userno). The pid does not appear to be padded, so can be any length. nnn appears to be the @LEVEL of the program that does the execute with capturing. So if you have program1 execute program2 which executes program3 with capturing, you will have a file Z_001 open during program3. If program1 executes program2 with capturing, which executes program3, you will have Z_000 open during program2 and program3. If you nest more levels and have more than 1 program execute with capture, then you have 2 capture files. unidata doesn't allow more than 2 captures at a time. So to find out if you were capturing, you would have to look in the original account's _PH_, and either select ids like Z_3npid, or loop and read for n=0 to @level-1. That could potentially be a lot of overhead on a live system where there are lots of captures going on. Or maybe not since most programs don't nest too deeply, and you only need to check for the file when you need to know. Are you on windows or on something else? If you aren't on windows, you could maybe open the tty device directly and write to it rather than using crt. I think that would go to the screen.

Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?
You can fillet the fish in another manner. If this is a *subroutine* being *called* then why do you also have an Execute going on? If the Execute...Capturing is the only Execute, then just use @LEVEL and for the level in question (say 3) you do this and if it's less than that, you do that. That would solve the problem without worrying about Capturing at all. -Original Message- From: Doug Farmer To: U2 Users List Sent: Fri, Jun 22, 2012 7:16 am Subject: Re: [U2] Is there any way to tell if I am in an EXECUTE level andCAPTURING is turned on?
