Hi Dennis,
If I code ...
DTST500R PR ExtPgm('TST500R')
D 10
D LikeDS(Test) Dim(2)
DTST500R PI
D Key 10
D Result LikeDS(Test) Dim(2)
DTest DS Qualified
D First 255
D Last 255
... and don't specify a name for the second parameter on the prototype,
I get an RNF3378 (Keyword LIKEDS or LIKEREC is not allowed when a length
has been specified) in SEU. I agree that it isn't important what I put
in there, but it does require me to enter something (maybe that it
compiles if I ignore the SEU error, but I haven't tried that).
Kind regards,
Paul

Subject: RE: confused over this prototype definition
I'm afraid Birgitta is correct, Paul. A prototype is nothing more than
its
name implies.
(I thought I had sent this from "home," but it didn't seem to come
through.
Apologies if it's a duplicate.)
