Mike,

you will also need to expand the list &OBJLST, because all the elements are
fixed 10 chars and if you have an object name of 10 chars there will be no
space between it and the next object name.

e.g. (substitute &OBJLST for &FldDs, FldL is the new list e.g. 50 x 11)

0343.00  /* Expand field list (nnaaabbbccc) to format (aaa bbb ccc) --*/
0344.00
0345.00 Flds:
0346.00         ChgVar  &FldNbr  (%bin(&FldDs 1 2))
0347.00         ChgVar  &LCount  (1)
0348.00         ChgVar  &LFrom   (3)
0349.00
0350.00         If   (&FldNbr = 0) (GoTo CpyToRmt)
0351.00 Flds1:
0352.00         If   (&LCount = 1)
+
0353.00              (ChgVar &FldL (%sst(&FldDs &LFrom 10)))
0354.00         Else
+
0355.00              (ChgVar &FldL (&FldL *bcat %sst(&FldDs &LFrom 10)))
0356.00
0357.00         ChgVar &LFrom   (&LFrom + 10)
0358.00         If   (&LCount < &FldNbr) (Do)
0359.00              ChgVar     &LCount (&LCount + 1)
0360.00              GoTo       Flds1
0361.00         EndDo

Mike,

Construct the entire command as a string and pass it through QCMDEXC like
this:
   CHGVAR VAR(&CMDSTR) VALUE('SAVOBJ     OBJ(' *CAT &OBJLST *TCAT ') LIB('
*CAT &FRMLIB *TCAT ') DEV... etc
      CALL PGM QCMDEXC PARM(&CMDSTR &CMDLEN)

Where &CMDLEN is a 15.5 decimal (packed) variable.
