Re: Basic question, sorry in advance

I guess I assumed wrong from the lack of information as well and thought
this was an entry plist.

Either way, the plist (entry) will or should look the same on the other
end. Making it a subprocedure would clean things up and remove any chance
of garbage in the parameters (in most cases).

You got me confused. He's trying to call this program from the command

sub-procedure help? Do you a temporary program so that he can call it? Yes
I agree. Once again, little information is provided. Snippets of code
that really don't make sense. But in order to be able to call this
particular program.
<snip>
housek begsr
parms plist
c parm ponum 1200
c parm whs 3
</snip>

I can only assume that the name of this parameter list is parms. Missing
the beginning of the line for both the begsr and plist. I can also only
assume that this is the calling program and not the called program.

Now that I've re-read it. I'm not even sure what's not working.

So the question to the OP is, is this working or not?

CALL PGM(MYLIB/WHSCHG) PARM(70118136 '100')

Wouldn't this make it an Entry PLIST? Maybe it should be, and it's not.

Who knows... too much missing info and misunderstandings.
