If you want to use an expression, you need to specify the parameter as CONST. I think VALUE will work as well, but I stick with CONST.

D tline 120a CONST


Joe

I get a compile error that points to a problem with this code (presumably)

writeLine(' INFO : Requested Delivery date for VIN: '+
%trim(vinnum) + ' has changed from '+ assemblydate + ' to ' +<===
Compiler complains about this line
cdtm02002 ) ;

WriteLine has this prototype and PI

D writeline PR
D tline 120a
---------------------------------------------------------
P writeline B
D writeline PI
D tline 120a
c/free
if overflow = *on;
write heading;
overflow = *off;
endif;
MsgTxt = tline;

write detail;
/end-free
P writeline E

I *think* it is complaining the the WriteLine procedure can't take a
variable but all the procedure does is fill a variable in the output
file. The idea is to write messages to the printer file about errors
and warnings. Can I not pass a variable parameter in this case?
