It did allow it to compile but it is still giving the same error that I am
not passing the correct number of parameters.


How are you calculating the length of the CMD string? Is it possible that this value is wrong? or, are you using the system() API, and therefore don't need a length?

After all of the posts in this thread so far, it appears that you've got the string formatted properly -- but if the length is wrong, it might not be seeing all of the parms.

Also, ILE RPG programs don't typically issue an error message when you call them if you don't pass the correct number of parameters. Instead, they let the programmer use %parms and other tricks to test for parameters being omitted.

Are you calling an OPM CL program?

If not, I'd be curious to see the error message. It's possible that you're troubleshooting the wrong part of the program. Perhaps you're calling QCAPCMD and passing the wrong number of parmeters to that API, rather than the program that you're submitting to batch.

It sure would help if you wrote a very simple proof of concept program that just accepts the parms and submits the job. Very short, very simple. Then, if you can't get it to work, you can post that program on the list, and we'll be able to try it as well.

Just a thought.
