It seems that "local smpl" will set "smpl @all" according to ative page when calling the subroutine, not the current active page

Code: Select all

wfcreate(wf=hg,page=info) u 8 pagecreate(page=spot) d5 "1968-01-02" "2015-05-31" '12369 obs table tb pagecreate(page=pw) w "1991-03-28" "1993-02-24" '100 obs %pg = "spot" call subL(%pg,3,1) pageselect pw call subL(%pg,2,0) 'smpl if id3<>na ' only 100 obs subroutine subL(string %pd, scalar !m, scalar !L) '%pd : wf page name, daily '!m : tag '!L : =1, local smpl pageselect {%pd} if !L=1 then local smpl endif smpl @all tb(!m,1) = @otod(1) tb(!m,2) = @otod(@obsrange) genr id{!m} = (@day<=!m) endsub
the table tb shows
'1/02/1968 5/29/2015
'3/28/1991 2/18/1993
the 3rd row is expected to be the same as the 2nd row. and only 100 obs in id3 are not Na

Yep, that's the way it was designed.
