RE: CEEDOD

Thanks Simon.

The code does check for number of parms pass to the procedure.  I just did not 
included it in the e-mail.  However, I think I found the problem already.  It 
is because CEEDOD does not work correctly if the caller declare the parm as a 
data structure.  Another word if pRefDat is declare as a data structure on the 
caller, it will not work.

I'm assuming that there is no PTF for this yet.

The 3 means the 3rd parameter passed which is defiend as *NOPASS
therefore might not even exist if it was not passed.  You must check
that you received a 3rd parameter before you check whether a descriptor
was passed.  Recode as:

C                   IF        ( %PARMS >= 3)
C                   callp     CEEDOD(3 :DescType :DataType
C                                   :DescInf1 :DescInf2 :DataLen
C                                   :*omit)
C                   ENDIF
