RE: QMHSNDPM

Hadn't thought of that. Thank you and thank you Simon.

Sharon,

In all my programs, I define a global constant called 'ThisProgram,
which I
use to define the main procedure (i.e. program) interface e.g.:

D ThisProgram C 'CRTMIPGMR'

D main PR Extpgm(ThisProgram)
D P_qPgm 20A Const
D P_qSrcf 20A Const
D P_SrcMbr 10A Const
D P_Text 50A Const
D P_Option Const Like(Option)
D P_qPrtf 20A Const
D P_Aut 10A Const

D main PI
D P_qPgm 20A Const
D P_qSrcf 20A Const
D P_SrcMbr 10A Const
D P_Text 50A Const
D P_Option Const Like(Option)
D P_qPrtf 20A Const
D P_Aut 10A Const

My SndPgmMsg() subprocedure (which is defined ain a copybook and then
brought into the program code that way) pass this value to the
CallStackEntry parameter of QMHSNDPM.

Works like a charm.

I have several shell routines that were subroutine based using Message
Control subfiles. I am trying to create a basic shell that is
procedure
based and the main holdup is QMHSNDPM/QMHRMVPM.

I can get a /include version to work at the main level, but once you
get
nested within procedures it doesn't work very well. It looks like I
need to interrogate the call stack in order to get back to the initial
PEP. Am I headed in the right direction?

TIA,
