Hi Timothy,

I'd suggest to use the current version of IBM i Access Client Solutions
(ACS) and prompt then the CALL Command.
In the SQL Reference you'll find also the Syntax of the SQL Call Statement
documented.
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/i/7.4?topic=statements-call

If you get an error, it could be because you passed a literal, that does not
match the defined parameter. BTW 'X' is interpreted as VarChar(1) and not
Char(1).

CALL YourSchema.YourProcedure (Cast('1' as Char(1));

It also depends on if the parameter is an input, output or In/out parameter.
For an output parameter you may pass a ? (but IIRK it does not work in
STRSQL only in ACS)

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
