OLDCV 

The OLDCV function is a Report Writer function that returns the value of
a BREAK WHEN control expression.  The value stored is the value the last
time a break at the given level (or lower level) occurred.  The BREAK
WHEN statement at this level must have a numeric control expression.

The OLDCV value is not available until report output is started.
References to this function before that time generate an error.
