RE: Record size limitation in RPG - MQ Series

Ah, Thank you! and Keith Carpenter!  As I wuz obviously havin' a "blonde
and/or senior moment", aka Intermittent Alzheimer's set in there fer a
bit...;-D

Although more appropriate to RPG-L, (and I'll go on and cross-post over
there in case the reply should come from there,) CONST is what allows
essentially an Input-Only type-a parm, right?  Is it required, in order for
functions to be used IN expressions, iirc??

| RPG can pass by reference or by value. By reference is the default, which
| is where a pointer to the data is passed; specifying the D spec keyword
| VALUE passes the actual data. CONST makes a copy of the data and then
| passes a pointer to the copy.
