A data structure, Rob, not a field.  And if you read further, you'll see
that the data structure must be defined with EXTNAME or LIKEREC, neither
of which works as far as I know for procedure parameters.

If you know differently, please give an example of the coding.  I'm on
V5R1, so I was unable to determine whether you could use LIKEREC on
procedure parameters, but EXTNAME doesn't work.
