    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1.The 390 indexer gets message ARS5419E *
    *                      No documents found - input exhausted    *

    *                      2.When MCC2ANSI=Y and                   *
    *                      LINEOFFSET=AsPrinted are both           *
    *                      specified, double and triple space MCC  *
    *                      can result in single spacing instead of *
    *                      double or triple space ANSI.            *
    ****************************************************************
    1.ARGL390L was not properly gathering indexes when a change
    condition causes a new segment to be detected.  This led to the
    ARS5419E message.
    
    2.When ARGL390L is processing LINEOFFSET=AsPrinted, it inserts
    'virtual' lines for purposes of counting lines.  That virtual
    line is not stored in the document.  When ARGL390L is performing
    MCC2ANSI=Y, it has to modify the subsequent line to account for
    the differences between 'print - then space'   versus 'space -
    then print'.  Unfortunately, the LINEOFFSET=AsPrinted
    did not account for the fact that the subsequent line was
    virtual and would not be in the document.  Thus the alteration
    of the carriage control was lost.
    

Problem conclusion

  • 1.ARGL390L is changed to properly gather indexes.
    
    2.ARGL390L is changed to only modify lines that will end up in
    the document when LINEOFFSET=AsPrinted is specified.
