Subject:  Embedded SQL in ILERPG






 Hello all,

I am trying to retrieve data from an Oracle database using Oracle Access
Manager
and embedded SQL in ILERPG.

I am selecting 12 columns from the ORacle table and inserting into a PF
locally.
I have problems with one of the Oracle columns and if I remove this column
everything works fine.

The problem is this: On  Oracle the field is defined as :
DESCRIPTION_2_TXT      VARCHAR2(30)
In the records that I need to retrieve, all the values are blank in this
column .
After I FETCH the cursor, SQLCA has the following values ( I've just pasted
the
msgs that I think are relevant)

  SQLCA                 DS
      SQLCOD              BIN(9,0)             -000000305.      'FFFFFECF'X

    SQLERM              CHAR(70)             '  DESC2
                             VALUE IN HEX
'0009C4C5E2C3F24040404040404040404
                             41
'404040404040404040404040404040404

   SQLERR              CHAR(24)             '                        '
                      VALUE IN HEX
'000000000000000000000000000000000

  SQLSTT              CHAR(5)              '22002'          'F2F2F0F0F2'X

The host variable that I am retrieving this into is defined as 30A. No
values
from any of the other columns are retrieved. If I get rid of this field
from my
cursor definition, the code works.  How can I "monitor" for this scenario ?
Also,
where do I find more information on these error codes? Can't find anything
in the
manuals........

Any help will be appreciated.....

Thanks
