Re: Help with parameter passing

Hans,

How would we pass a parameter to a proc written in RPG IV like we
can with some of the programs we call.
For example, if I want to allow a parm to be anything, numeric,
character, date, etc.  And then tell the proc on a subsequent parm
what that value is, do I code the parm as a pointer or what?

.....D myFunct        PI
     D  anytype                     *
     D   nLen                     10I 0
     D   nDec                     10I 0
     D   type                     10I 0

Could I call myFunct and pass a characte field, or a numeric field
or a data field?  If so, could I avoid using %ADDR to do it, or do I
need to wrap the variable in %ADDR?

My guess is that I would need to do pass %ADDR(CustNo), but is that
allowed when I may want to change the data in the called proc? (i.e, I don't want to use CONST).

Thanks!
