The only thing I could think of would be if a Boolean variable named FALSE,
with a value of TRUE exists for your session.

Subject: Scratching my head; boolean variables always TRUE
I recently encountered a situation that I simply can not explain. In
certain situations, my session becomes unable to set a boolean variable to
FALSE. Doesn't matter if it is a CI variable like HPCMDTRACE or one of my
own creation. Doesn't matter if already existed or was created for the
first time by my "setvar".
I can do the following:
SETVAR ISITSO,FALSE
SHOWVAR ISITSO
and the result is:
ISITSO = TRUE
How could this ever happen?
Possible background info:
This just began happening after I started testing a demo of a product
mentioned on this list, namely: ScreenJet. I am not pointing any fingers
here; coincidences happen all the time. I have submitted this question to
the makers of ScreenJet, but thought I would run it by the astute members
of this list; since I could not conceive how anything could cause this
phenomenon to occur.
