When i try to test my programs, i use a print statement to display parameter values. In my current SPoD configuration it does not display anything. The only way i get it to display something on screen is with an Input (AD=M) statement. How do i configure SPoD to enable the Print command? ---

What sort of SPoD configuration are you working with? Do WRITE and DISPLAY similarly not appear? ---
