I'll jump in -

There is a 7.1 PTF for the fully-free-format RPGLE. It was timed with 7.1 TR7, IIRC. Here is a link to some info -

https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/We13116a562db_467e_bcd4_882013aec57a/page/New%20with%20IBM%20i%207.1%20TR%207%20-%20Free-form%20H,%20F,%20D%20and%20P%20statements%20for%20RPG

Sorry for the length - did not have TinyURL handy!

As to /end-exec - that is no longer needed - certainly not in free-format calculations. It is needed if one uses fixed-format. Just put a semicolon at the end of the statement. I'm using RDi 9.1, no complaints. Buck's example below is just like ones I just did the other day.

Charles, did this come at a certain TR level?

The documentation I see here says /free and /end-free are a 7.2 thing: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_ibm_i_72/rzasc/rpgrelv7r2.htm

Also, I've been trying to find examples of doing SQL cursors without /end-exec, but can't find any. Only short statements like inserting or deleting records, nothing for reads.

Anyone see an example? RDI seems to complain about the lack of /end-exec.

You can leave off the /free /end-free and /end-exec at 7.1.

There we go! Guess we just need to get on the bandwagon and update to 7.2.

Very nice. Didn't know you could do that!
You can also leave out the /free and /end-free as well as the /end-exec.
(I'm on 7.2)

exec sql
declare cursorname cursor for (
select a, b, c, d, coalesce(e,0),
