Re: Is there anyway to change a PI and not re-bind?

Hi Steve,

When you say "probably
unnecessary" I was confused. Wouldn't you have to create a new current
signature so the new programs could use the new parameter, while leaving
existing programs to use *PRV?

I was obliquely referring to the fact that I could simply make all my signatures the same, like 'company_name' instead of something that makes sense. Then the signature stays the same at all times, there is no *PRV and all new procedures go at the bottom of the binder source.

Or can a *NOPASS parameter be added to a PI and existing programs not
using this parm will run fine as long as the procedure doesn't reference
the new parm?

Yes, existing programs that consume the procedure will run just fine. But there's no point adding a new parameter to a subprocedure that isn't used anywhere. You can add the new parameter safely as long as you don't refer to it unless it's been passed by the caller.
