How "creative" of a solution are you looking for?

If you don't/can't use another file to write the data to, how about Zipping
the data into an IFS object and then picking it up on the other side with
the other program and unzipping it to access the data?

Subject: Seeking inspiration ...

I have a series of programs that need to be able to share some basic
information.

Solution must have similar characteristics to the LDA in as much as it must
be available to any batch job submitted from code running in interactive or
web mode,

BUT there are some limitations:

1) Adding additional parameter(s) is not an option

2) Using the LDA is not an option (other software thinks it "owns" it)

3) Does not involve the use of a file if at all possible.

Everything I have thought of so far falls apart somewhere along the path -
so I'm hoping someone else here has dealt with a similar issue and can stop
me from going round in circles with this one.
