Mark,
I'm not sure why you would think it *odd* when
your use of the end-compute wasn't correct for
what you intended.
What you coded would compile because it is correct
syntax. What you coded would not work because it
is incorrect in logic in that your end-compute that
you thought was terminating the original compute actually
terminates the compute withing the on size error clause.
You could also solve it by adding another end-compute which
would then match-up the compute/end-compute the way you
were expecting.

Well it worked, it strikes me as odd, but it worked. Thanks.
But that begs the question, how many programs do we have
merrily bouncing
around to the wrong statements because of this?

Mark - any scope terminator terminates scope to the
most previous initiation of the scope in question.
So, if inside a compute/end-compute don't use another
compute within your on-size-error.
Change
COMPUTE WS-WEIGHT-PCT =
+4 (WS-ITEM-WEIGHT * 100) / WS-LEVEL-WEIGHT
+5 ON SIZE ERROR
+6 COMPUTE WS-WEIGHT-PCT = 0
+7 END-COMPUTE
+8 COMPUTE WS-PNH =
+9 FOB-AMT(1) * WS-WEIGHT-PCT / 100
10 END-COMPUTE
to
COMPUTE WS-WEIGHT-PCT =
+4 (WS-ITEM-WEIGHT * 100) / WS-LEVEL-WEIGHT
+5 ON SIZE ERROR
+6 MOVE ZERO TO WS-WEIGHT-PCT
+7 END-COMPUTE
+8 COMPUTE WS-PNH =
+9 FOB-AMT(1) * WS-WEIGHT-PCT / 100
10 END-COMPUTE
