Ops, yes "without losing the original length" is what I meant.

If you have OPDESC on your export procedure, you could use CEEDOD to
figure out the length of *varsize parameter (No additional length param
needed). This work fine until I need to pass this *varsize parameter to
another procedure that actually does the work. In this case, this other
procedure is getting the max size of the *varsize variable length. I
can go a round it, but the way that I'm doing it is quite "not so
pretty". Soooo, I just want how other handle this type of stuff.

Do you mean "without" losing the original length?
It's my understanding that when you use *varsize you should be sending
another parameter stating the length of the field.

Subject: Passing *varsize parameter to another procedure

Can somebody suggest the best way to pass a *varsize parameter to a
*varsize parameter of another procedure with losing the original length
of the variable?
