Re: *Entry to /Free problem

I think that's the wrong solution. The PR and PI names, I think, have to be the name of the program; at least I remember getting an error once when I wrote one where they didn't.
The problem is that the EXTPGM( ) keyword is not needed in the RPG IV program for a Call / Parm interface. EXTPGM is used to qualify the actual program that will be invoked with a CALLP, EVAL, or just a function( ).

Subject: *Entry to /Free problem

I am trying to convert to *Entry to /Free & I get a MCH3601.  Does the
CLP have to be CLLE? Or am I missing something else?

CLP
            DCL        &HOLIDAY    *CHAR LEN(   1)
            DCL        &DCYMD      *CHAR LEN(   8)
            DCL        &STRDAT     *CHAR LEN(   8)
            DCL        &ENDDAT     *CHAR LEN(   8)
            DCL        &DATRNG     *CHAR LEN(  80)

            CALL       BANK101  (&HOLIDAY &DCYMD &STRDAT &ENDDAT
&DATRNG)

Only &DCYMD is set in the CLP.

RPGLE

     //   *ENTRY        PLIST
// PARM HOLDAY 1 // PARM DCYMD 8 

     //                 PARM                    StrDat            8

     //                 PARM                    EndDat            8

     //                 PARM                    DateRange        80


    dBANK101          pr                  extpgm('BANK101')
    d Holday                         1A
    d Dcymd                          8A
    d StrDat                         8A
    d EndDat                         8A
    d DateRange                     80A
//ENTRY 
    dBANK101          pi
    d Holday                         1A
    d Dcymd                          8A
    d StrDat                         8A
    d EndDat                         8A
    d DateRange                     80A

      HOLDAY = 'N';                     // This works.

        DateRange = DCYMD;              // Error occurs here.
