I think I have what should be an easy question.
I would like to call an SQL stored procedure from within
a free-format RPGLE program. Is that possible?
Hopefully I'm not oversimplifying the question.
Please advise, with examples if possible.

Within a SQLRPGLE /free program [i.e. pre-compiled by SQL], here are four examples:

Exec SQL
call qsys/qcmdexc ('dspjob', 0000000006.00000)
;

Exec SQL
call execcmd('runqry *n qtemp/pn')
; /* routine ExecCmd is wrapper for QCMDEXC for ease of use */

Exec SQL
call scanchunks(:pos, :srch, :str1, :str2)
;

Exec SQL
call getemladr (:E :EI , :N, :T)
; /* first parm passes null indicator */
