Passing a array DS as a parameter

[Frank Kolmann <frank.kolmann@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for the suggestion Birgitta.
I changed the code to use an array DS.
The code is here. https://wiki.midrange.com/index.php/ARRAY_DS_of_DSPFD

I am using V7R3

However I am getting only the first element of the DS array back to the 
calling program.

FWIW I know I had the MODS passing working previously, so what changed?

In any case , what have I done wrong to not get the entire DS array back 
to the caller.
This is the first time I used a  DS array.  Is it even possible to pass 
a DS array as a parameter?


Regards
Frank
