Manage Errors

You may want an ACL/E program to send a copy of the screen to the Log when an error occurs so that the programmer can easily see what was going on when the error occurred.

The following statements send the screen to the Log when the search string is not found:

        SEARCH 'xxx'            SEARCH FOR DATA 
        BRANCH NE,ERROR1        IF NOT FOUND, PRINT THE SCREEN 
              ... 
ERROR1  COMMAND 'P * LOG'       PRINT SCREEN TO TPX LOG 
        WAIT 1                  GIVE 'P' COMMAND TIME TO EXECUTE 
              ...
