- Greetings!
- We have run into a mysterious problem. The logical that used to be defined
- using quotes ceased to be known to VMS. We had to remove the quotes from
- the startup file. In the sample below, the first instance works, the second
- does not. Has anyone had this experience?

- K_G3> diff group_env.com

- 185 $ define/group/nolog "ICT_pcp$cfg" dir$config:pcp_startup.cfg

- To quote or not to quote? Please share your opinions/stories about this.
- Thanks.
