You're actually 100% correct.  I *meant* to say,
"...has something to do with not being able to pass numerics other than 15,2
to RPG programs from CL programs directly..."

Then again, this has nothing to do with the original question, I guess I got
confused cause he included a message talking about someone wanting to use
QTEMP from a submitted job, and I thought he wanted to so he could pass
parameters and...  It's just been one of those days.

I'm flying up to Seattle next Monday for LAN/WAN wiring of one of our offices
and my mind is only half on what I'm typing, the other half is trying to
remember what I'm sure I forgot I had to take with me.

Regards,

Jim Langston
