I am trying to use the QCAPCMD API. I keep having a problem...one that just
does not make sense to me. The error is that the length of Parm 2 is not
valid. I have tried different length values for this parm, but no luck.
Now I have the length defined as the size of the command parm. The problem
parm is $$CmdLth. The error message is as follows:
Message ID . . . . . . : CPF3C1D Severity . . . . . . . : 30
Message type . . . . . : Escape
Date sent . . . . . . : 08/10/00 Time sent . . . . . . : 17:44:59
Message . . . . : Length specified in parameter 2 not valid.
Cause . . . . . : The length of 19660801 for parameter 2 is not valid.
Values for this parameter must be greater than 0 and less than 32703.
Recovery . . . : Correct the length and call the API again.
When I run it in debug and check the value of the parm, the value shows 300.
I am confused by this one. Does anyone have any helpful advice? My code is
as follows:

D CLCommand PI 10I 0
D Command 300A Const

D CommandExc PR ExtPgm('QCAPCMD')
