Your cl is expecting 4 parameters.
Your command has only 3 defined.

Subject: how to build a CL command with OPTIONAL parms
I am attempting to build a CL command (w/o ILE) with OPTIONAL parms.
The IBM manual seems to show a simple MIN(0) MAX(1) on the PARM statement is all that is required.
PARM KWD(DBLIB) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) RTNVAL(*YES) +
MIN(0) MAX(1) PROMPT('database lib: _CMISDB')
However if I use the command and skip some parms, I receive the error shown below.
set_envr &EMADDR1
Is there a trick to using OPTIONAL parms in a CMD and CL pgm?
Thanks
