Fw: SQL bug. Possibly with new database group or PTF for free RPG.

From the RPG list...

Rob, you suspect exactly correctly about the source of the problem. We
have
PTF SI51597 available as a test PTF now and it will be approved for
general
availability by the middle of January.

One of our developers is pursuing this with IBM:

Currently, you have to have spaces between the minus sign in a
subtraction

in embedded SQL.
For example,
exec sql
select (field1-field2) from file1;

Will give an error about field1-field2 being invalid. Our suspicion is
that the all free-form modification broke this where it thinks it is one
of those dcl-xx or some such thing.
