The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

I think all you need to do is add the "for update of ... " clause. As I recall, this forces the fetch to lock the current row, pending the "UPDATE ... WHERE CURRENT OF myCursor".

Subject: equivalent of lock and update in SQL
in rpg record I/O I lock a control record, increment a control number, then
update the control record. Which reliably gives me a unique value.
C** GET NEXT SID NUMBER FROM WCMAST
C inwacd CHAIN WCREC
C EVAL WCNSID += 1
C UPDATE WCREC
/free
outSid = wcnsid ;
/end-free
Can I use SQL to do the same thing?
thanks,
