You were already given the answer in the original topic.

This is incorrect. When a parm is passed from jcl, PARM-DATA1 will contian the length of the parm. |

Hello Kiran,
Please read the topic before posting your thought. There is no mention of a called program in the question.
You made a similar assumption in your previous reply in this topic. |
