Charles,
I would say after the OPEN. As my V5R3 SQL Reference Manual states:

"The rows of the result table can be derived during the execution of the
OPEN statement and a temporary table can be created to hold them; or they
can be derived during the execution of subsequent FETCH statements. In
either case, the cursor is placed in the open state and positioned before
the first row of its result table. If the table is empty the position of the
cursor is effectively “after the last row.” "

So it would seem that as soon as you do the OPEN you would have the number
of retrieved rows...

Ok, looks like there's a DB2_NUMBER_ROWS / ROW_COUNT statement
information item I get get back using teh GET DIAGNOSTIC statement.

There's also SQLERRD(2) and SQLERRD(3)in the SQLCA....

Does anybody have any expirence using teh above with a dynamic SQL
statement that returns a cursor to the client.

Do I put the GET DIAGNOSTIC after the PREPARE or after the OPEN?

Thanks!
Charles

I've got an SQL stored procedure that returns a cursor to the client.

Is there anyway to tell inside the stored proc, how many rows are
available to be returned to the client?

Running on v5r4.

Thanks!
Charles
