Hi everybody,

I'm trying to write two programs in MF Cobol (Windows version) in the OSVS batch and CICS environment. The Cobol version is Cobol II.

The first program calls dynamically a second one, which should receive 3 parameters passed by the caller.
WORKING_STORAGE SECTION.
01 data1.
01 data2
01 data3
...
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
...
CALL modulename USING data1, data2, data3.

These parameters are level 01 Working-Storage defined items in the calling program, and level 01 LINKAGE in the called one:

LINKAGE SECTION.
01 data1
01 data2
01 data3
PROCEDURE DIVISION USING data1, data2, data3.

Tha program call runs dynamically ok, but the called program receives only the 2 first parameters.

I've been looking into the documentation for compiler directives that deal with that, but I've found nothing at all.

Has anybody faced such a problem? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
