Try just using "ENTRY" in the name portion... You can name the program internally however you want, and I've used this syntax before to appease the search habits of other coders.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] *ENTRY vs. " PI " in RDP 8.0.3 problems with OUTLINE view

Hi,

Going forward, I am using the procedure interface the "PI" for my *ENTRY parameters.

But, I hate HARD-CODING the program name in the "PI"...

So, I leave it BLANK, and it compiles fine and executes as expected! Cool!

Now to back to RDP 8.0.3, it blows up when I try to create an OUTLINE view. It just crashes and ends RDP. No message, No Error, just ENDS...
<Big Frown>

I even tried to verify first. But that fails, because it wants me to HARD-CODE the Main procedure in the "PI" statement...

I guess I should go back to FIXED Format for *ENTRY parameter list...
<Disappointment>

PS. I understand when you have multiple modules, and you need to know the main interface. But, we mostly use Service programs.
