  • Subject: Re: Passing Numeric Parms in SBMJOB. How ?

Numeric parms work but always seem to be a point of failure and booby trap for 
unwary programmers.  The 15/5 thing is never quite clear.  

Being the chicken that I am, I solve the problem you mention by stuffing the 
information into the *LDA while in interactive mode, and then read the *LDA in 
the RPG program during the batch mode.
