RE: Error on compile

There is no space between your
CMD(CALL PGM(INVMARGIN)PARM
should be 
CMD(CALL PGM(INVMARGIN) PARM

RE: Error on compile






Ok, I am totally lost now LOL.....I do believe that I still need to keep 
each parm deliminited which is what I have been doing.

Here is what it looks like, which at least to me looks correct:

 > EVAL CMD 
   CMD = 
             ....5...10...15...20...25...30...35...40...45...50...55...60 
        1   'SBMJOB CMD(CALL PGM(INVMARGIN)PARM('AA' '06/01/2005' '06/30/' 

       61   '2005'))                                                     ' 

      121   '                                                            ' 

      181   '                    '
