The key is for those who RTFM - which sadly is rarely the case.

I last read the pubs many years ago when it was hardcopy - with
softcopy I typically read sections instead of cover to cover - another
failing of online pubs.

Thanks for the tip.

"OUTTRAP cannot trap SAY output from within the exec that issued OUTTRAP. However, 
if exec1 invokes exec2 (as a cmd of subroutine) and exec 2 issues SAY output, or exec2 
generates TRACE output, the calling exec can trap that information."
