Re: Passing decimal data

[Booth Martin <booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We haven't seen the code, but I w0nder how the parm is defined in the 
RPG program?   Sometimes I've found that if I use the "INZ" keyword on 
the D-spec where I define the numeric parm, a lot of surprises disappear.

> I'm looking for some help with passing decimal data from a CL to a RPG program.  I have a CL program where it brings up a green screen display file (prompt screen) and asks the user to enter in a couple of fields.  One of the fields is a 2 digit decimal field.  Once the data is entered I would like to pass the data to a series of CLs that are submitted to batch, and in turn pass the data to a couple of RPG programs.  When I run my CL I get a decimal data area in the RPG program.  The parameter field in my RPG program is defend as 2 digit packed decimal field.  The paramter in the CL program that calls the RPG program is defined is 2 digit decimal field.  I know this should be something simple, but I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong.  Any ideas where I'm going wrong?
