Passing By Reference

Hi *ALL

I pass a parameter with option(*varsize) to a subprocedure
of a service program by reference.  I modify the parameter
and upon trying to return the parameter to the calling
program I get a pointer not set error.  I can however move
the parameter to a field defined LIKE the parameter,
change the like field and pass that field back with no
problem.

Is it true that a parameter passed to a subprocedure by
reference cannot be changed and returned?

TIA!!!

John
