It would be easier to determine the problem if you sent the PLIST of AP A and B along with the call to SP B.

Subject: Here's an interesting RPG parameter Issue
I'm sure it's something that a few of you know why it happens, but here's the situation.
Service program A calls program B with a parameter list (using PLIST.. yes, it's old).
Let's say the parameter list contains a string called firstName and we pass in a value of Brad.
Now, Program B modifies that parameter value to Bradley.
Program B ends, LR is set on, all that good stuff.
Control returns to service program A and firstName is still Brad.
We call Program B again, but before we do we verify firstName is Brad.
In Program B, firstName is still Bradley.
Make sense? :)
