RE: Ovrsplf in rpgle program help

["Willie J. Moore" <WJMoore@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

With the help of all of you I am now getting closer. 
I am now getting the following error: 'The call to *LIBL/QCMDEXC ended in error'
When I look at the JOBLOG the following MSG is: 'Command length not valid'.
When I look at the dump, the @CMD has the correct data. How do I find the 
correct length and will I have to change it for the next 'QCMDEXC'?
Here is the code I am using.

 C                   move      *blanks       @cmd             23   
 C                   if        %Open(ADITALABRP)                   
 C                   Close     ADITALABRP                          
 C                   ENDIF                                         
 C*                                                                
 C                   EVAL      @CMD = 'DLTOVR FILE(ADITALABRP)'    
 C                   CALL      'QCMDEXC'                           
 C                   PARM                    @CMD                  
 C                   PARM                    LEN              15 5

Thanks,
Willie..

You will need to assign a value to LEN also.  Either hard code it or use 
the CHECKR op code to dynamically determine the length of the command 
string.
