RE:

You have this:

If %Parms <= 2;
Clear Key1;
Clear Key2;
Endif;

Which is clearly wrong.

You should have this:

If %Parms >= 3;
Clear Key1;
If %Parms >= 4
Clear Key2;
Endif;
Endif;

I am puzzled !



I'm calling a subprocedure. This subprocedure has 4 parameters in its
procedure interface. Only the first is required, the three others have
the option *NOPASS.



D Patientadmit PI N

D Cazi Like(CaziDp) Const

D Date D Const Options(*Nopass)

D Key1 Like(Key1Dp) Const
Options(*Nopass)

D Key2 Like(Key2Dp) Const
Options(*Nopass)



D Datu S 8 0



/Free

If %Parms <= 2;

Clear Key1;

Clear Key2;

Endif;

If %Parms = 1;

Datu = %Int(%Char(%Date():*Iso0));

Else;

Datu = %Int(%Char(Date:*Iso0));

Endif ;



I'm calling this subprocedure in the following way :

C If PatientAdmit(CaziHo:%Date(DateHo:*Iso))

C ... Do some stuff

C EndIf



When I run this interactively, all goes well. However, if I run this in
batch, the procedure crashes on the "Clear Key2" statement, saying that
the pointer or location was not referenced.

What am I missing ?



Maybe, I have to say that the subprocedure is part of a service program
which is bound to the calling program.
