getting into MicroFiche Filer AREXX programs should be aware of a couple bugs I've found (so far). First, if your macro is acting weird, especially if you're getting syntax errors that are obviously bogus try running the macro from outside MFF as ".rexx" program, as opposed to a ".mffm" program. LOCK the macro synchronously to MFF as described in the manual. Non-MFF functions often cause ".mffm" macros to choke. Running 'em outside clears that up. Second, be aware that the SORT macro command will only sort in ascending order, regardless of what your sort preferences are set to.
