RE: Junk Passed 32 on 3000A parm

["Bartell, Aaron L. (TC)" <ALBartell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am assuming he is testing it from the command line. . . Try testing it by
calling it from another program.  If you don't want junk in 'cmd' then you
need to specify all 3000 bytes when you call it.

CALL ExecuteCommand Parm('DSPPFM CUSTMSTPF      








')

Ugly yes, but you shouldn't have the same problem if you call it from a
program.

Subject: Junk Passed 32 on 3000A parm 


Got ask this off list. Someone was trying to test out PR of qcmdexc. Wants 
to do something like this to see how it works.
But because parm is over 32A it has junk in the 3000A. Say he sends in 
SBMJOB command or something. Any way to get around this. I build my 
command strings in code so don't have this problem.  Any comments on 
solution. He's learning I'm always learning.

Thanks
