Re: QMQRY CL Parameter

You need to declare &CHARJOB.
DCL &CHARJOB *CHAR 10

Hi,
I'm trying to pass a parameter to a QMquery via STRQMQRY and I
thought I'd found the solution

Query . . . . . . : SALARYQ3

000002 FROM TESTDATA/STAFF
000003 WHERE JOB = &COND1 AND SALARY < &COND2
000004 ORDER BY JOB,SALARY

But the CHGVAR above is illegal even though it's in an IBM manual!
Anybody any ideas on what I really need to pass a parameter similar to
this? I think I need to add a quote either side of the parameter and
yet not have the parameter end up in quotes.

Regards
Ian
