Hi Jim,
The sample program has a mistake.  It shouldn't have the
factor 1 entries in the PARMs.  For a few trigger programs
this isn't a problem, but any trigger program that declares
the first PARM longer than necessary can run into trouble
when the PARM copies too much data from the result to factor 1.
