You have to recall the function to the stack before you perform the command MAP. Let s say you have a list saved as MYLST and a function saves as MYFCT, then

Setting flag -2 is a good idea if you don t use CAS or use it once in a while, otherwise you are going to find yourself constantly changing the setting when a
