Re: Two variables...one memory location

I am calling a procedure that passes in 12 parameters. Two of these parms are populated within the procedure and the new values are passed back to the calling pgm. These two variables, when testing, are using the same memory address in the system. As soon as one is assigned a new value they both are updated with the new value.

I have changed the order of the parameters, re-compiled, logged off and other various means of trying to resolve the address issue. Can anyone tell me why the system might be assigning these two variables the same memory location or a way to avoid this?

It sounds like a parameter mis-match between the caller and the called procedures. Are you calling this from a command line?
