RE: creating a new procedure that call anexistingprocedurewithoneadditional parm

Hi Charles,
 
<snip>
I think it depends on what happens to be in memory at a particular location.
</snip>
 
My understanding is that passing *OMIT into the procedure in place of an
omittable parm would set the address to null. If it didn't then *OMIT is a
waste of time.
 
For example, if you could omit ONLY the fourth of seven parms you've got no
way of checking if it's passed without checking it's address - referencing
the variable directly will cause an exception if it actually was omitted.
 
Cheers
