c                   Endif
And so on....
NB : SQLfirst is there to add the AND after the first slect clause.
Hope this help

C/END-EXEC

This SQL statement will select record from the file only when the condition
between the parenthesis results in true.  There are several host variables
that can be blank, if they are blank then I want that record to be return.
Anyway, I think you'll be able to figure this out.  Just ask if you need
help.

I believe recently I saw a thread here or somewhere on how to deal
with optional predicates in a where clause, i.e. sometime parms will
be passed in to be used in where clause, sometime not, its possible to
set the where clause to function accordingly on what is passed in.  I
cant recall where I saw it and did not bookmark it, can anyone point
me to the thread or highlight how to do that, thanks.
