RE: Same like SETLL in Embedded SQL

Hi Amir

It depends on exactly what you want to try and achieve.  If you want to
position the cursor back to the very first record you positioned to
originally then you can do it using scrollable cursors:

C/Exec SQL
C+ Declare C1 Scroll Cursor
C+     For Select field1,field2
C+    From Filename
C/End-Exec

Open and use the cursor as normal, and then when you want to position back
to the first record you can use

C/Exec SQL
C+ Fetch First
C+  From C1
C+  Into :xfield1, :xfield2
C/End-Exec

If you only want to position to the first record without reading the data
then use:

C/Exec SQL
C+ Fetch Before
C+  From C1
C/End-Exec

You can reposition scrollable cusors using any of the following keywords:

        Next                    On the next row after the current row
        Prior                   On the row before the current row
        First                   On the first row
        Last                    On the last row
        Before          Before the first row
        After                   After the last row
        Current         On the current row (no change in position)
        Relative n              n < -1 positions to nth row before current
                                n = -1 same as Prior keyword
                                n = 0  same as Current keyword
                                n = 1  same as Next keyword
                                n > 1  positions to nth row after current

If you're hoping to be able to reposition to anywhere in the file then you
will either have to close and re-open the cursor passing in the keys, or
maintain a relative record number for the cursor so that you can use the
Relative keyword to position backwards as far as you need to go.

Hope this helps a little
