Alan,

Changing the parameters to a procedure will *not* change the signature of a
service program. The only thing that will change the signature (assuming
SIGNATURE(*GEN) was specified for the STRPGMEXP command in the binder
source) is changing the number or order of the procedures themselves in the
binder source. Of course, if the SP was created with EXPORT(*ALL), then this
also applies.

As I understand yes, this changes the signature of the service program
and it's the signature it looks at. Just remove it and compile to a test
library and see if the signature has changed. If yes, you have an issue.
If no, you are ok.

I need to remove the last parameter from an existing export procedure,
do I need to recompile programs that uses it?  I've checked all programs
and non of them are passing the last parameter (This is an optional
parameter).
