Tommy,

I'll defer to your expertise any day, but that's not what I see. What I see
is newAgentNumber returning a signed (i.e., unpacked) value. But eAgentNo
is defined as 11 0, which makes it packed.

I am trying to replace subroutine &local procedure in my RPGLE program to
create a module. In my RPGLE I have a subroutine and use a local procedure
to return the value of AgentNmber(AGENOQ). I wrote a module to combine
both subroutine and local procedure into one and trying to return same agent
no. I get the error "the type of factor 2 is not the same as as the type of
return value of procedure"" in the code (return AgentNOQ ; ) . Please help
to correct the
error.





My RPGLE:
begsr
@NewAgentNo;

// local procedure newAgentNumber allocates the next Agent


eAgentNo = newAgentNumber(eBrandCode:eProductCode) ;

endsr;


p newAgentNumber...
p b

d pi 11s 0
d brand 2a value
d product 3a value

/free

if not %open(CVSFile) ;
open CVSFile ;
endif ;

chain(e) (brand:product) CVSFile ;
dow %status(CVSFile) = 1218 ;
chain(e) (brand:product) CVSFile ;
enddo ;


if %found(CVSFile) ;
AGENOQ += 1 ;
update RCVSFile ;
endif;

return AGENOQ ;

/end-free

p newAgentNumber...
p e
========================
=======================================================================



My module:
------------

p getnewAgentNumber...
p b Export

d getnewAgentNumber...
d pi Like(*inLR)
d eClientNo 11 0
d eBrandCode 2a
d eProductCode 3a
d eAgentNo 11 0
d x_errorDS LikeDS(dsErrorInfo_Template)
*;

/Free




/free

if not %open(CVSFile) ;
open CVSFile ;
endif ;

chain(e) (brand:product) CVSFile ;
dow %status(CVSFile) = 1218 ;
chain(e) (brand:product) CVSFile ;
enddo ;


if %found(CVSFile) ;
AGENOQ += 1 ;
update RCVSFile ;
endif;

eval eAgentNo =
AGENOQ;

return AgentNOQ ;


if %error;
x_errorDS.error = *on;
doError('AAA0001':x_errorDS);
return *off;

Else;
return *on;
Endif;
close CVSFile;
/End-Free
