RE: Abend (was: RE: I had to say it ... )

["Metzger, Lucinda M" <Lucinda -dot- Metzger -at- ca -dot- com>]

"This prompts me to ask -- does anybody here still use the term "abend"
or am I *really* dating myself? I once used it, thinking it was a
well-known piece of computer jargon, and my manager had to go look it
up."

Yes indeed..."abend" is still commonly used with mainframe applications.
