   Subject: Calling S/36 OCL procedures from api SYSTEM or QCMDEXC

   I have a client that runs most of their applications in the S/36
   environment.

   This means that on their regular manus each menu item runs a OCL/36
   script.

   They also have more and more funktions that are in IBM i native functions.

   I am now trying to install a dynamic menu system that uses either
   (selectable) the "system" or "qcmdexc" API-s to call functions based on
   menu settings.

   This works fine for calling programs or using system commands. However it
   does not work at all for calling the S/36 OCL scripts.

   Does anyone know of a work around?

   Both "system" and "qcmdexc" api-s assume that the name of the OCL/36
   script is a command object. Unfortunately.
