Look at Note 1 of the HELP.
1. If you are executing a CMS EXEC or EXEC 2 file, the arguments you enter
on the RUN command line are assigned to the variable symbols &1, &2,
and so on. If you are executing a REXX program, the arguments you enter
on the RUN command line are available through the arg instruction.
The RUN command passes only the file name (fn) of an exec to the EXEC
processor. Therefore, you cannot use "fm" to select a particular exec.
The last sentence is a killer.
