RE: [C400-L] CMD parms

["Ulrich, Kent" <Kent.Ulrich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I handle SBMJOB in these cases by placing quotes around all strings at their
full declared length.
Here is a snipet of my typical SBMJOB command string creation.  I then use
QCMDEXC to execute it.
 RQSDTA(''CALL PRPPRC PARM(+
 ''''' *CAT &UNAME      *CAT ''''' +
 ''''' *CAT &UWSID      *CAT ''''' +
 ''''' *CAT &GROUP      *CAT ''''' +

ie, in my case they're all 9999
However I have debugged the CL and found that's the cause... Although I
always thought if the PARM length = the DCL length then you dont get this
problem. Looking at the archives it seems you definitly dont get it with
SBMJOB, but I'll have to look into this furhter...

Thanks,
