I think this has been discussed but my search of the archives hasn't turned up 
a solution yet.

I am retrieving records from a file using embedded SQL.  The code follows.  
When I compile the precompiler generates error SQL5011 that my data structure 
is undefined or not usable.  In the past this usually meant I hadn't defined a 
field properly.  If that's the case this time I don't see it.  I have 
determined that if I remove the date field from the DS the program will at 
least get past the precompiler.  A post from the archives about using the set 
statement to set the SQL date data type pointed me to an interesting Redbook 
but didn't provide a solution to my situation.   I would appreciate any insight 
anyone may be able to provide.

This is the data structure:
      // Data Structure for returning Application information from SQL  
     d RtnDtaSet       ds                  Occurs(1280) Based(RtnDtaSet@)
