Hello Mike,

24.04.95 23:45, you wrote a message to David Etheredge:

Do you know anything additional about this feature? I used it
(DevHelp_SysTrace) in a debugging version of our ADD. 
It would be nice to keep it in the retail version but I decided against it
because I don't know which 'major trace event code' I should use.
Is there a predefined value for ADD's or is this number provided by IBM on
a per vendor basis?


Bye,
