I swear I've looked (and RTFM), but if there is a way to set an 
errorlevel/exit code from a PB program, I sure can't find it.
Would anyone care to share a technique? It's fairly easy in QB/PDS, so I'm 
sure a fine compiler like PB must have an equally simple procedure.

Thanks for your help Eric....you've pointed in the right direction.
