Re: MIDRANGE-L Digest V3 #704

Here's a sample of the proto etc.  The description of the command should be
in the C/C++ Library function reference manual and in the C Language
reference itself.  The main advantage over QCMDEXC is that you can not only
check if the command worked, but also determine why it failed.


  H DftActGrp(*No) BndDir('QC2LE')

  D ErrorCode       S              7    Import('_EXCP_MSGID')

  D CallSystem      Pr            10U 0 ExtProc('system')
  D   CmdString                     *   Value Options(*String)

  D Command         S            200A   Inz('AS/400 command goes here')

  D OK              C                   0

  C                   If        CallSystem(Command) = OK

  C     'Command OK'  Dsply
  C                   Else
  C     ErrorCode     Dsply

  C                   EndIf

  C                   Eval      *InLR = *On
