There's some interesting terminology that needs to be agreed upon before embarking on this jaunt down Pedantry Lane. RPG cannot call an SQL stored procedure; only SQL can. Of course, RPG can invoke SQL which in turn can call a stored procedure. But the Very Cool nature of OS400 makes stored procedures a different animal than on other databases. We write an RPG program, create the program object and then use SQL to register it as a stored procedure. Because our stored procedures are implemented as *PGM objects, and because we can call programs from RPG, we can call the underlying program object! So while we can't really call the SP, we can call the underlying program which implements the SP. I have not tried to call the underlying program in a LANGUAGE SQL procedure though. --buck
