Re: Help with SQL compile issue - Solved

After reviewing the code again, I realized that the cursor was declared in the *INZSR, but the Open and other functions were in other subroutines that were PHYSICALY located in earlier source statements.
The SQL Pre-Compiler is NOT aware that the *INZSR gets executed first, so it sees the Open etc BEFORE the DECLARE and issues the error.
I have moved the other subroutines to after the *INZSR and the pre-compiler now has no problem.

Subject: Help with SQL compile issue

I have a program with the following code:
In InzSr
C/Exec SQL
C+ PREPARE SMO_SELECTION FROM :sSelect
C/End-Exec
C/Exec SQL
C+ DECLARE MO_SELECTION CURSOR FOR SMO_SELECTION
C/End-Exec
EndSr



Later, in execution
C/Exec SQL
C+ Open MO_SELECTION using
C+ :FCmp, :TCmp,
C+ :FCust, :TCust,
C+ :FLoc, :TLoc,
C+ :FItem, :TItem,
C+ :FSer, :TSer,
C+ :FSTag, :TSTag
C/End-Exec

Get pre-compile error, SQL0504 35 761 Position 17 Cursor MO_SELECTION not declared.

Get the same error on the cursor for the FETCH, and the CLOSE

I can not determine why I am getting the error in the pre-compiler.

Thanks,
