I don't know what happened to the body of my original email, but it wasn't in the list when I looked at the archive this morning. The relevant code is here.

It must have been received otherwise you wouldn't have got ANY replies. The fact the body is missing from the archive copy indicates either:

o a problem with the archive process
o or a problem with the format of your e-mail

Either way report it to David Gibbs.

I looked at the answers to the original message and it seems that some of it must have been seen because CR Spence makes reference to the CL test wrapper I wrote. Anyway, I did find a reference to the function parameter being passed in as a varchar and so I changed the SQL function parameter to varchar(16) and the RPG procedure parameter to varying and got the same error.

Chuck already pointed you to the likely cause. You specified PARAMETER STYLE DB2SQL but your prototype does not match the requirements for that interface. Refer to the DB2 SQL Reference and read the topic PARAMETER STYLE in the section CREATE FUNCTION (External Scalar). Given your prototype and that your function is in a service program you probably want a more general parameter style.
