Hello Rob,

D anArray                       10I 0   DIM(nn)

If you also want to pass a variable number of keys (as is the case in this
API) then you would code:

D anArray                       10I 0   DIM(nn) OPTIONS(*VARSIZE)

Although I note that specifying CONST seems to have the same effect because
I have successfully called the QUSLJOB API passing an array of multiple
elements when the prototype was defined as:

D keyFields                     10I 0   CONST DIM(1) OPTIONS(*NOPASS)

As a result of your question I have corrected my prototype because *VARSIZE
is more descriptive of the intended use.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
