PH17976: RATIONAL PROGRAMMING PATTERNS 9.6.2: UNDO ON COBOL PROGRAM TURNS "PACBASE-CONSTANT" AREA TO SPECIFIC CODE.

Rational Programming Patterns Interim Fix 7 for 9.6.2
Rational Programming Patterns 9.7.1

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• Generation of RPP programs create entries in the "Pending
  change view".
  If the undo command is applied on a program on which the RPP
  Cobol editor is still open, the colour of the "PACBASE-CONSTANT"
  area changes. It is turned to standard Cobol code colourisation
  looking like specific code entered by the developer.
  

Local fix

• Close the editor and reopen it or ensure the editor is not
  still open on the program when doing the "UNDO".
