Might as well go for broke here. My EXTNAME and PREFIX is giving errors. Trying to make a free format DS for what is "dsPgms" shown below it. Tried these keywords with the " ' " and without it.

Dcl-ds dspgms PSDS
EXTNAME(SYSAPGPF)
PREFIX(Gv)
End-ds;
// d dsPgms EsDS EXTNAME(SYSAPGPF) PREFIX(Gv)

The IBM documentation I am not understanding for either of my Prototype declarations.

d EXPPGM PR Extpgm('FIFT09RE')
D

D APCVRMXXX PR ExtPgm('APCVRMXXX')
D EHCORF 10
D EHINTP 1
D @RTCODE 2P 0

The folks in India that originally wrote this program do not even know you do not need /Free and /End-free anymore. Instead of figuring out some C-specs they just left a few lines here and there. I got corrected in a code review that I might be writing code no one OFFSHORE could understand:)
