OK - I will <grin>

The SP signature has nothing to do with parms.  It is a function of two
things, the names of the _procedures_ and the _order_ in which they are
exported.  The RPG Redbook ("Who knew.....") covers some of this as does the
ILE Concepts manual.

While it would be a nice idea if the types/lengths ( but not the names ) of
the parms played a part in the signature they don't.  It is up to you to
ensure that they remain compatible.  In fact other than the actual generated
code to handle the parms, there is zero information on parms recorded in the
module let alone the SP that results from it.
