Title: RE: Create an SQL function

No, I'm not talking about stored procedures.  I'm talking about functions which are created with "CREATE FUNCTION".

Has anyone out there created one?

     Dave,
    
     Are you talking about stored procedures? Look like you need to
     register the procedure.
    
     Here's a procedure I just created this morning:
    
     CREATE PROCEDURE SCANMEMO(IN     CASENUMBER  CHAR(9),
                               INOUT  RC          CHAR(1))
        LANGUAGE RPGLE
        MODIFIES SQL DATA
        EXTERNAL NAME SRCS01/IDR197B
        GENERAL
       
     There's a brief (but useful) sample in the "Sorcerer's Guide"
     redbook. I believe there are also samples in the ODBC programmers
     guide.

I am attempting to create an SQL function.  I can create the function but
whenever I try to use it, I get the error "SQL0204 - RTVDOW in *LIBL type *N
not found.".
    
I tried creating the function in QGPL and ensured that QGPL was in my
library list, but still get the same error.
    
The SQL manuals do not have any examples on creating functions using RPGLE
(which is what I'm using). Any ideas?
    
Thanks,
Dave
