Hans,
Awe, Hans... you mean the %READPGMRMIND() built-in isn't in V5.3?  :(

No, not quite. We're adding an improvement to V5R3 that will help deal 
with partial arrays, but it won't really help in this particular case. 
With the new %SUBARR() built-in function, you'll still have to keep 
track yourself of the number of valid elements.

Cheers! Hans
