All,
Thanks for the suggestions...

Thus far, NO combination of language(RPGLE or C), Contains SQL or NO SQL(it does not), or parameter style has made a difference. I'm still not getting the modified parameter returned. Obviously I'm missing something...

Originally I compiled the program as RPGLE, got nothing, and re-compiled is as SQLRPGLE even though it contains NO SQL...Does it matter?

The language is C because when you create a stored procedure the system generates C code that it then compiles to create the stored procedure. The C object calls your RPG program. So, you are actually calling a C program that is wrapped around your RPG program.

Subject: T-SQL receiving parameter from iSeries

I have a T-SQL stored procedure on MS-SQL server, calling a procedure on iSeries, which changes the parameter @Parm from "Called Parm" TO "Returned Parm".
The iSeries SQLRPGLE program is:

C *entry plist
C parm Parm 15
C*
/free
eval Parm='Returned Parm';
/end-free
C eval *inlr = '1'
C return

I ran this command from within SQL400:

CREATE PROCEDURE RODDACUSTM/TEST_PARM(INOUT Parm CHAR ( 15)) LANGUAGE RPGLE SPECIFIC RODDACUSTM/TEST_PARM NOT DETERMINISTIC NO SQL EXTERNAL NAME RODDACUSTM/TEST_PARM PARAMETER STYLE SQL

The T-SQL procedure is:

Code snippet....

DECLARE @parm CHAR(15)

set @parm = 'Called Parm'

execute ('Call RODDACUSTM.TEST_PARM(?)', @Parm) at LS_ISERIES

insert into test_parms
VALUES(@Parm)


The only values that end-up in the test_parm table are "Called Parm"

Why do I not get a parameter back?
