Hi,
assuming it's a COBOL program here is an example of the JCL
| Code: |
//MATCH EXEC PGM=ALLDUP,PARM='003,010'
|
Here is an example in the source code
| Code: |
LINKAGE SECTION.
01 PARM-AREA.
03 PARM-LENGTH PIC S9(4) COMP.
03 PARM-START PIC 9(3).
03 FILLER PIC X.
03 PARM-END PIC 9(3).
EJECT
PROCEDURE DIVISION USING PARM-AREA.

This from someone who has minutely dabbled in Cobol language.

Note that it's up to you to parse/edit the PARM value.
You might want to check the length for validity. In Gerry's example above, if you really expect a comma in position 4, it'll be up to you to check that, too. etc. etc. etc. |
