Re: Passing Parms

The technique I prefer is to design a data structure that contains the
fields that are commonly needed across an application and then create an
externally described data structure that includes them.  Then, any changes
in parms need be made in one place only.

I also have much better luck with data structures.
I have a couple of programs similar to yours and in those I passed one
long string containing all 4 values. In the sender I lump all 4 into on
char variable and in the receiving program I use %SUBST to get each
individual item, if it then needs to be numeric on that side I just use
MOVE.
