Karling, it sounds like your having some basic, low level, problems with
PLPs.
In general, you should not be creating a PLP every time you run it. You
should either design the PLP via the webtop, or write a one time only script
to create the PLP.
Once that's done, yes, you have a 'runner' file that simply calls CFA_PLP.
Normally it will do other things like check for the completion of the PLP
and then do something.
How do you know the ID of the PLP? When you create the PLP, there is an
attribute you can pass that will return the PLP ID for you. Or you can just
check the webtop.
