 We are having an unusual problem when trying to use CLI$DCL_PARSE from a
detached process. The detached process gets created using the RUN/DETACHED...
DCL command. The error returned when we try to parse a line from an
initialization file that the program uses is:

        %CLI-E-INVREQTYP, invalid request type

 The *ODD* thing is that when the program is run interactively or via a BATCH
command file, it works without error. It only gets the error when it is
run detached.

 The System Messages and Recovery Procedures manual suggest that we submit an
SPR for this problem - but that takes too long.

 Has anyone experienced this problem before, or can anyone recommend a
workaround???
