David,

That does appear to be a defect. Could you please enter a PMR?

Thanks!

Subject: [WDSCI-L] CPD6248 when prompting command PARM

Folks:

Anyone else encountering this?

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.

The line I'm prompting is ...

PARM KWD(MODE) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4) CONSTANT('*DSP')

The command compiles fine and can be prompted in SEU.

PMR time?
