Re: Can it be possible ???

"Can we use prototyping in dynamic call also? (the CALL opcode)"

Yes - you just specify the program name with the EXTPROG keyword on the PR line
as follows:

    D TaxCalc                  PR
ExtProg('PAY27C')
    D    Param1                                                 9  2  Const
    D    Param2                                                 1

    C                          CallP    TaxCalc( BaseAmt + Bonus : TaxCode )

This shows calling a program named PAY27C and passing two parameters; the first
one is a numeric value that the called program expects to be a 9,2 field.
Using the CONST keyword allows an expression or other numeric field (e.g.
Packed 7,2) to be passed as the parameter.  The second parameter is a single
character - any attempt to pass it (say) a numeric value will be rejected by
the compiler.
