Hi
When you say that field2 is a date field, are you saying that it is a field that represents a date (CHAR(6) or CHAR(8) depending on how the date is defined - MMDDYY or MMDDCCYY
Or is it a TRUE date field (type L) - but you are passing it as character (char(10))

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fwd: passing different data types field values from CL to RPG

Hi,

I have two fields let's say fld1,fld2(date field) and having their data types in CL program as Character but in RPG program they are as numeric so the problem is happening when we are passing these parameters from CL to RPG program for example if we pass fld2(having date value in it) to a RPG program then up on debug it's known that it captures some junk value and same happens for fld1( which is character in CL program) and when same is passed in RPG then it gets some junk value in it i have seen these junk values while debugging both the programs they are passed well from CL but the moment they come in RPG becomes junk values.how can we prevent this from happening?

Any suggestions please?


Thanks..
