No, it does not.

That depends on the prototype (which he didn't show us) if the prototype
defines that parm as "16A CONST" then *blanks should be fine.

Since he's getting a "job not found" error, it seems likely to me that
the problem is either with the prototype, or with one of the following
fields:  QualJobNm, JBREF, JAUSR, JAJNR...  I'd like to see how those
are defined?

Here's some sample code that I just wrote (and tested) and it seems
to work just fine for a job that's held on a job queue.  Granted, this
code isn't espcially useful since I didn't flesh out either the dsEC
structure or the dsJob400 structure...   but the code DOES work,  I'm just
too lazy to define all the fields (especially since that had nothing to do
with the error he's getting)
