Rob,
I did not mean that a new MAIN batch submitted job occurs on each
request. I apologize if it came across like that.
Rather, can MAIN be a never-ending-program (running in a batch
subsystem) that could field requests from RPP? This is the approach Dr.
Syd talked about. Program initiation would only occur once (per batch
submission) and after that you should only need to worry about
initializing the incoming parameters and work variables. Depending how
they were put into the D specs (individually or under a data structure)
would be a matter of calling a clear subroutine or clear the data
structure (IMO).

Trouble is that I guess that this would be very slow as the MAIN program
would have to be initialised every time. Very large quantities of
parameters are passed on the call to MAIN. This could be done another
way
but it would be quite a lot of work and I would only do this as a very
last
resort.

Can the MAIN program be a submitted batch job that provides service
requests?
