Re: creating a command that returns a value

On the PARM command for the member, specify the RTNVAR keyword.

From the help text:
                       Return value (RTNVAL) - Help                     
                                                                        
 Specifies whether a value is returned by the command processing program
 through the parameter being defined in this PARM statement.            

Hope this helps,

Subject: creating a command that returns a value

Can someone show me how to return a value from a home grown command.



Here is the command I crearted:



Spool File Name  . . . . . . . .                Name


Job  . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  *            Name, *


User . . . . . . . . . . . . . .                Character value


Job Nbr  . . . . . . . . . . . .                000000-999999


Spool Nbr  . . . . . . . . . . .  *LAST        1-999999, *ONLY, *LAST


Return member...       



I will be using the command as follows:

SAVSPL2PF SPLF(QSYSPRT) rtnmbr(&mbr)





I would like the command to process and return a value in the &mbr parm. Is
this possible?
