Warnings from routines returning other than 0

Then you have the ability to use any argument on any routine call. Say you call MyRtn(Arg1,Arg2,Arg3) you can change the value of Arg3 and pass it back to the sequence. The sequence can use this in a parameter value for the next job. You used to get a warning if you changed the value of an argument. Now it is encouraged. What is the big deal?
When you go to select the parameter value then right click. Choose a Activity Variable. Pick the routine you just called. You can choose $ReturnValue, $RoutineName or any argument.
This is very powerful. I can do anything I want now. These are also available in UserVariable Activities. So you could loop based on some complicated formula in a routine. You can do almost anything with this.
I think all of this was available in 7.5. I just looked it up in 7.5.1A. Try it.
