Yes, however you did not do a prepare.  If you were trying to make your
statement more flexible, like selecting certain fields, or convoluted
selection criteria, you might choose to use a prepare and an execute, or
an execute immediate.  Not to say that your example is invalid.  In fact
it probably works perfectly well in your business application.  But I've
had some where I had to build my statement on the fly.

C/Exec SQL
C+ Select * Into :QryExtDs from QryExtFlds
C+ where QreLink = :Linkno and QreFName = :ShFld
C/End-Exec

This works without a cursor, but only if there are not multiple records
that
match the search criteria.
