[snip] > Is there a shorter way of declaring 297 optional parameters in PL/I? You may want to look at the "LIST attribute" of an ENTRY declaration in the Enterprise PL/1 Language Reference. It might require the Enterprise edition of the complier, I'm not sure it was supported on elder versions of the comiler. There are builtin funrctions that help you find how many optionals have been specified and where they are. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
