Parameters vs. Data Structure?

Hello there everybody -

Got a program calling another program with 55 parameters being passed
between each...all really needed...some for input only, most for returnage
of data. Can anyone lend some expertise to these queries?

1. any NOTICEABLE performance issues here...it is an order entry
application...program would be called maximum twice for each order.

2. would I be better served with 1 field being passed and then split into a
55 field data structure upon entry/re-entry?

Thanks much people.
