In my system, the TYPE-POOL statement is not allowed and will give a syntax error. It forces you to use the TYPE-POOLS statement, do you have an example of where you see the TYPE-POOL statement?

Oh, I think I see what you are talking about. In a report program write this.




report zrich_0002.

type-pools slis.

Now double click on the SLIS. This takes you to the type pool. This first statement in the code is TYPE-POOL. This is just how you define the start of the type pool. Sort of like REPORT ZRICH_0002 or FUNCTION ztest. When developing a type pool you will begin the code by saying TYPE-POOL ZTEST. Then, to use the type pool in your program, you will say TYPE-POOLS ZTEST.

Make sense?
