I hope this is the right group to ask maybe not. However, I will
start here. I want to create a Stored Procedure which will be used by
a windows form application. To present the data quicker I want to use
an RPG program underneath the covers. How can I return a result set
from an RPG program? I am used to sending all of my fields back as
individual parms. The programmer developing the windows form
application has asked for a single result set. We do this with SQL
all the time however the data we are going after is in multiple files
and it is single record time access which has better performance with
RPG.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Make the program SQLRPG, but only to enable defining the RESULT SET. Use the SQL statement SET RESULT SETS; e.g.
SET RESULT SETS WITH RETURN TO CLIENT ARRAY MyArray FOR NbrOf ROWS

Issue the CREATE PROCEDURE to define DYNAMIC RESULT SETS 1 for that SQLRPG program.
