This means that both PGMA and PGMB need to change their parameter lists to match, but if they’re both yours and PGMB isn’t already in use elsewhere, that should be easy.

Your stored procedure should still work fine. In Pgmb move the actual datastructure to the output parameter if the %parm value indicates that the data structure was passed

The call in PGMA includes the data structure as the last parameter in the call to PGMB

PGMB is an existing SQLRPGLE pgm which is called from a VB/.net front end application. PGMB returns a result set of mutliple records/rows. I am currently writing a ‘green screen’ version, and should be able to use the existing stored procedures, but not sure how best to return mutli-rows to another SQLRPGLE or RPGLE pgm

It is not possible to use the Qualified DS in the passed parameters list, so how can I get the data back to PGMA without using external files or data queues?

There must be a straight forward way of returning data held in a Qualified DS to the calling pgm.

  1. You have two SQL RPGLE programs.
  2. Your first program issues a SQL CALL to the second.
  3. You have a DS named ResultSet.
  4. You don’t actually want to return a “result set”. You simply chose the (somewhat confusing) name “ResultSet” for your DS.
  5. The objective is to have the DS in the first program contain whatever data was placed into a DS of the same name in the second program after the SQL CALL completes.
  6. However, you don’t yet have any parameter defined to pass any part of the DS between the two programs

Do I have it fairly straight?

Tom
