SYMPTOMS

Using the USE command with the TAG qualifier causes an "Unrecognized Phrase/Keyword in Command" error.

RESOLUTION

Modify the USE command to use the ORDER TAG qualifier.

MORE INFORMATION

Page C3-920 of the "Commands & Functions" manual lists an example of calling a User Defined Function (UDF), which reads as follows:
