Bill,

Well

The can only think of two ways to get around that:

 1) A second alpha parameter containing the string representation of the
command length 

or

2) A string that you would scan for within the command string that would
show you the end of the string, for example <EOC>  In your procedure you
would scan and find this string and substring all the characters
previous into a string to use with QCMDEXC.  It would almost be like the
null-terminating character you would use in C, but it could be keyed
from the command line.
SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM1 PARM('1234') JOB(JOBNAME) JOBQ(QPGMR) <EOC>

HTH,
Andy
