Re: Command works with CL CPP and not with an RPG CPP

This may sound silly but I thought I'd ask,  based on your description the
RPG program will return one of two variables if it is active or on the job
queue.  What if it's neither, would it return blank?  Are you sure the job
your testing is one of the two Possibilities? This would explain your blank
field.
