I suppose the answer could be "it depends"?

By defining a data structure with all of the fields you could then haveone parm but have passed a very large number of values?

Subject: Maximum number of Parameters passed to a RPG program

Just had one of our Business Analyst ask this question: What are the maximum
number of parms you can pass to an RPG program?

Why a non-programmer wants to know this, I can only guess.

Can anyone point me to the page in the manual that gives this limitation?
