Question: COBOL/400(SQLCBL) Compile Time Working Storage

[D Meza <mezazerlin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
 
Could you tell me why  these compile generated area's automatically appear in 
the working storage section of my COBOL/400(SQLCBL) program that has embedded  
SQL, and may I reference these fields for any reason in my COBOL/400 
(SQLCBL)Program or are they only used by the AS400 System  at compile time? I'm 
hoping you could tell me how they are used? I would appreciate any help you can 
give me. Thank you.
 
D. Meza
