Re: %parms value when calling from SQL UDF.

["Mail List" <maillist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Pete,

So does the same caveat apply to %parms when used in a subprocedure?  That
is, if the subprocedure is called by some program that does not pass a
minimal operational descriptor, will %parms be unavailable?  No mention is
made of which languages would do that btw.  And what does "unavailable"
mean?  Is it zero?  Or will I get an error if I try to use it?  Do I have to
start putting in error trapping for this situation in my subprocedures?
