RE: Free format vs SQL

I have a problem, (who doesn't), with the SQL precompiler.  If I remove the
C from in front of the first /FREE in this program, it will not compile.
Instead of putting the SQL data structure right after my last D spec it
will put it after the /END-FREE and before the C/EXEC SQL.  Basically, it
inserts this data structure before the first C spec.  I tried to trick it
by using a C* prior to the /FREE but that wasn't good enough.  It still put
it after the /END-FREE.  I guess that comments count as a C spec.

     D Plant7          S                   like(hlff1)
     D Count           S              5P 0

     C/FREE

       Plant7=Plant;
       VdlPo=*blank;

      /END-FREE

     C/EXEC SQL
     C+ declare V1 cursor for
     C+  select vdlpo
     C+         from vdline where hlff1 = :Plant7
     C+         group by vdlpo
     C/END-EXEC
