It's really not the name szCmd. It's the fact the defining a Prototype (PR
in col 24) doesn't define the variables used as parameter names. That is
done in the PI. Because you are prototyping a C procedure, there is no PI
so if you wanted to define a szCmd as Varying and pass that, And, you don't
have to use /FREE. Here is an example:

     Dsystem           PR            10i 0   extproc('system')
     D                                 *     options(*string) value

     DszCmd            S            500      varying

     C                   eval      szCmd = 'ADDPFM FILE(MyFile) MBR(MyMbr)'
     C                   if        system(szCmd) <> 0
     C                   do something here

Thanks much,

But I know the Client would S@#T over seeing /FREE was just trying to
sneak in system prototype so I could handle messages better.
Any one know why it does not like the name szCmd?

Thanks
Bill Hopkins

because the prototype doesn't 'define' the variable You really don't even
have to name it if you don't want to.

You could define it like this:

Hey got question about example in acticle:

D system          PR            10I 0 ExtProc( 'system' )
D  szCmd                          *   Value Options( *String )

How come szCmd gets "*RNF7030 The name or indicator szCmd is not defined."

Is it because I'm on v5r1.

By the way I decided to do it anyway :) Hell, all but one, won't notice
anyway.

Thanks
Bill Hopkins
