RE: Calling a procedure that returns an indicator field from a CL program

I tried to reply to this before, but had a mail problem; so apologies if
it appears twice.

You've probably defined your return variable as one byte, yes?  Try
defining it as two instead.  There's a strange glitch (a bug or a
feature, perhaps), the reason for which I don't understand, that says
that return variables for CL procedure calls must be greater than one
byte.  I believe this is documented somewhere.
