Re: How to track the error messages in CL program for called RPGLE programs

[Sam_L <lennon_s_j@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It seems like PGMA may be a poorly written program, and I got the 
impression from earlier in the thread that techie21 did not want to 
change it, or was not allowed to change it, or didn't have the 
experience to change it. And thus may have been given an impossible job.

Your solution using *ESCAPE certainly will work and I hope there is 
enough experience to implement it. (Your level of assistance is 
exemplary.).

I suppose the alternative is to add a parameter to PGMA which is 
returned as blank if no error and contains the error message if there is 
an error.
