I am getting bad data being from a called program. Causing decimal data
errors when sending data back to the calling program,.
I have a created a small program to get information from a file and pass it
back to a calling program.   This program is compiled with crtbndRPG and is
not a real Proc

getinfo program
D getlast               pr            extpgm('PRR353')
d ssnox                               like(ssno)
d best                                like(last)
d prvsupssn                           like(supssn)
d
D getlastblood    pi
d ssnox                               like(ssno)
d best                                like(last)
d prvsupssn                           like(supssn)


 /free
  chain(e) ssnoX pr58mf;
  if %found;
    eval bestblood = lastblood;
    eval prvsupssn = supssn;
  else;
    eval bestblood = 0;
    eval prvsupssn = 0;
  endif;


****************** End of data ***************************

Here is the calling program
D getlast         pr                  extpgm('PRR353')
d ssnox                               like(ssno)
d best                                like(last)
d prvsupssn                           like(supssn)

It's not the destination that counts in life it's the journey. The journey
with the people we love is all that really matters. Such a simple truth so
easily forgotten.
