And only one parameter may be returned if procedure is called via EVAL with return.

What is the best way to return multiple parameters from a procedure (assuming I don’t want to use PLIST/PARM’s).

For example a date routine (now created as procedure) passes back a date formatted in two different ways. Am I now supposed to format both dates into one field and return merged field/use the LDA? Or is there a better method?
