RE: Batch Submissions from RPGIV

May I ask the other question?  Why are you using QCMDEXE? What does that do
buy you? Can't you just call your procedure directly from the RPG program
and have one parm, the parm being a really long field that is filled from a
data structure in your program? The data structure would of course be all of
the fields that interest you?  The fields might or might not hold values.

The LDA is nice too.  The nice thing about that is that it can have a unique
name and if it does, then you can have default or startup values saved from
the last time the job was run.  That is especially nice on selection
screens.
