RE: 15,5 Revisted (Was Call Query)

Pass parms as structures.
Do not build apps based on whether you can call them easily from the
command line.
Users will never use the command line.

I'll side with the people that curse the 15/5 rule.  Yes Richard, you are
right.  Go ahead, make your RPG program accept 5/2, then try to call that
sucker from some new GUI application, or make the call to the program from
some other place, or need to adopt authority, or... It really is a
nuisance and I can admire any shop that says "No numeric parms".  I get
burned with this just often enough to swear off using numeric parms.
