I am not a guru but I will throw in my two cents worth.  To solve this
problem via Toolbox ProgramCall or ServiceProgramCall you will have to
write an intermediate program.  The client would stuff all parameter data
into a single parameter and call the intermediate program.  That program
would parse the data into multiple parameters and call the real program /
service program.  On the way back the reverse is done.  The intermediate
program gets return data from the real program / service program and stuff
data into a single parm that is returned to the client.  If I wanted to
make the intermediate program generic, the single input parm would ben
something like:
     int numberOfItems
     int[] itemSize
     char[] items
I would also enforce format to be something like the first item is the
library name, the second item is the program name, the third item is the
entry point (size = 0 if calling program versus a service program), etc.

buffer, But still it errors out. All Ideas welcome.

Hello,

      Please oblige if this question had been raised before in the group.
I am trying to use a
Service program which needs 12 parameters. But the manual says that I can
pass only 7 parameters into the SERVICE PROGRAM CLASS. How can I tackle
this
situation?

Thank you.

Naveen
