I'm getting a CPD6248 'PROMPT text is not allowed for the CONSTANT parameter or if TYPE(*ZEROELEM) or TYPE(*NULL) is specified', in RDi 9.6 (and 9.5) when I prompt a PARM (in a command definition) where the parameter has a value for CONSTANT.


It doesn't seem related to RDi. CRTCMD gives the same message.

It looks like the PARM command doesn't allow PROMPT for the cases where the parameter won't ever show up when the command is prompted.


Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought David had actually tried to put the PROMPT keyword on the PARM command.
