Good News Everybody!

Please report any problems to david (at) midrange.com.




The problem is that SQL treats character literals as VARCHAR.

You need to either: change your stored procedure to accept VARCHAR
instead of CHAR.

Or explicitly tell SQL that the literals are CHAR and not VARCHAR like
so:
CALL MFPUT_SP1 (char('D'), 
                char('FTPSERVER '), 
                char('FTPUSER   '), 
                char('mylib     '), 
                char('MEMBER    '))

Or even

CALL MFPUT_SP1 (char('D'), 
                char('FTPSERVER' , 10), 
                char('FTPUSER' , 10), 
                char('mylib' , 10), 
                char('MEMBER' , 10))
