Yeah, I saw that, but it still allows entry of a non-integer.  Weird.

Otherwise, use *UNIT4 and specify RANGE(1 999).


Yeah, that's what I've been looking at using.  Is the CL CPP going to see a
4-byte binary value when it processes this parameter?

BTW, here's what I'm trying:
    PARM       KWD(SAVESET#) TYPE(*DEC) LEN(3 0) RANGE(001 999) +
                 MIN(1) CHOICE('001-999') PROMPT('SaveSet Number')

And a new wrinkle:  Even though I've specified MIN(1), I can prompt / run
the command without entering a value for the parameter.  I thought MIN(1)
forced a value.  Is there another command definition keyword I'm missing?

Thanks again,
Dan
