Joe,

I have indeed tried appending a x'00' as well as
specifying options(*string). I really wish the
message would tell me what it is trying to run.
My best guess is that the command needs to be
passed as ASCII. I hate to write a wrapper
for the translation API only to find out it
is something else.

Thanks,

David Morris

I haven't tried it, but I know Unix commands like nulls at the end.  Did
you
make sure to append a null (x'00') at the end of your command string?

Joe
