     If you are using a Net.Data macro, the parameter can be passed as an 
     environment variable.  ILE programs can retrieve the variable with an 
     API call.  QtmhGetEnv is an API that exists in QTCP/QTMHCGI, at least 
     at V3R2 and V3R7.
     
     If you need to put an environment variable, there is a PTF for V3R2 
     and V3R7, to provide that API.
     
     There is a lot of good info at
