Re: Form-Type entry for main procedure not valid or out of sequence.

Gary,

I just realized that we have a source member called ERRNO_H and in the documentation of this member is says...

To use this:
1) put a /COPY ERRNO_H in the D-specs of your program.
2) put a "/define ERRNO_LOAD_PROCEDURE", followed by a
2nd "/COPY ERRNO_H" somewhere that procedures
are allowed to be defined :)
3) bind to the QC2LE binding directory.


The first COPY of ERRNO_H will put the DSPECS where they belong.

Then before you ** CTDATA, you need to define the ERRNO_LOAD_PROCEDURE then put a second copy of the ERRNO_H. This will copy in the stored procedure.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply.

commented about Re: Form-Type entry for main procedure not valid :

Move the /DEFINE and /COPY statement immediately following the other
/copy statements in your code.

When I move the /DEFINE and /COPY statement immediately following the other
/copy statements in my code.

I get an error right after:
001700 D RetrunCode S 2 DIM(9) ASCEND CTDATA
saying:
*RNF0256 30 a 001700 Specification found between procedures. Specification
ignored.
and on all lines in the C specs.

Thanks,

Gary

Does anyone have any idea what might be out of sequence?
