Albert, if you can deal with the calling program(s) then can you define one
parm of max length?

If you can make your shop standard be one parm in all called programs then
you can define an external data structure for each set of programs so that
you have one huge parm that is always the same length, and the content is
always consistent because both the called and calling programs use the same
externally defined data structure?

(sometimes a cat can be skinned in another way?)
