Rob,

A late reaction. (And this question popped up twice last week)

I tried (in Query Manager) an SQL statement with parameter markers on the ORDER 
BY clause and it returned MSGID SQL0208: The parameter marker is not an element 
in the result set, defined in the SELECT clause.

I do not know, if there is an equivalent value for SQLSTT.

Methinks, it is usefull to check SQL syntax in an pure SQL environment, like 
Query Manager, before using it in embedded SQL, prepared statements and host 
variables. That may compile.

Regards,
Carel Teijgeler.
