I would like to create a command to accept a parm of any length.

Must I use VARY(*YES) in the CMD source?

Do I then have to check the 1st two bytes of the parm for the length?



If I state the LEN(500) as the max length, I would like any CL pgm to use the command with a parm of any length 500 or less.

But the calling pgm forces me to pass a parm of length 500.

I have tried VARY(*YES), but it seems to not work well.

What is required in addition to VARY(*YES)?



Thanks!
