I have a custom form object (ZJ35) that includes two forms (ZJ35.1 and ZJ35.2). I'm trying to add a custom section within the object that I can reference from both forms - similar to referencing an external library. However, I keep getting an error on compile:

Warning: Illegal PERFORM: Referenced LABEL Not In SECTION
Warning: LABEL: 3000-GET-LAST-PERIOD-PROCESSED
Warning: Source Line: 403

As far as I can tell, I have the section named correctly and referenced correctly:
....
JRS001 MOVE ZJ35F1-PPT-COMPANY TO ZJ35WS-COMPANY.
JRS001 MOVE ZJ35F1-PPT-EMPLOYEE TO ZJ35WS-EMPLOYEE.
JRS001 PERFORM 3000-GET-LAST-PERIOD-PROCESSED.

...
JRS001 480-END.
...
JRS001******************************************************************
JRS001 ZJ35S1-TRANSACTION-END.
JRS001******************************************************************
JRS001

JRS001******************************************************************
JRS001 3000-GET-LAST-PERIOD-PROCESSED SECTION.
JRS001******************************************************************
JRS001 3000-START.
JRS001

... {custom code}
JRS001
JRS001 3000-END.

JRS001******************************************************************

Thoughts? Thanks...

You might be better off using the library facility to share the code between the 2 forms. I suspect that the compiler would handle it but Bismark is having trouble doing the make.

Thanks Gary. I'd hoped to avoid that approach, but I think you're right. Thanks!

Kelly... I don't think you will be able to do that. Although the two forms are contained in one PD, the system treats the S1 & S2 sections as different programs and do not communicate with one another since they are their own transactions.

Good Luck in getting this to work.

Thanks Jim. After fiddling with an external library, the business decided they wanted everything on one form, so that simplified things and eliminated the need. It's good to know this really doesn't work, for my future development. Thanks for your response.
