Re: creating a command that returns a value

PARM       KWD(RTNMBR) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10) RTNVAL(*YES)

be aware that any command that returns a value can't be run interactively 
and you'll have to specify that when you compile the command.

Can someone show me how to return a value from a home grown command. 

 

Here is the command I crearted:

 

Spool File Name  . . . . . . . .                 Name


Job  . . . . . . . . . . . . . .   *             Name, *


User . . . . . . . . . . . . . .                 Character value


Job Nbr  . . . . . . . . . . . .                 000000-999999


Spool Nbr  . . . . . . . . . . .   *LAST         1-999999, *ONLY, *LAST


Return member... 

 

I will be using the command as follows:

SAVSPL2PF SPLF(QSYSPRT) rtnmbr(&mbr)

 

 

I would like the command to process and return a value in the &mbr parm. 
Is
this possible?
