I think I misunderstood the question from my colleague. Here is the
corrected question:

Program A and Program B are in DIFFERENT job streams and require to fetch
completely different rows from the same Table.
They end up calling Program X concurrently (or say B calls X when Program
A's call to X still has the Cursor open), will they end up fetching
incorrect rows?

The Cursor name must be unique within the same member, i.e. it is not
allowed to use the same cursor name within different independent procedures
coded within the same source member.

If you want to read the same cursor from different programs, i.e. first
program reads the first row, next program reads the second row and again
the
first program reads the 3rd row, I'd suggest to write a procedure or a
separate program (while procedure is better) which is called from both
programs.

Subject: Re: Embedded SQL Question

I am confused about "unique cursor name" warning. Only Program X has
embedded SQL. So let us say I use a unique cursor name PGMX_C1, which is
not
used in anywhere else on the LPAR. When Program A & B call Program X, is
there a chance that I will run into an issue?

kind of stuff.

Never heard of someone getting bit by that.

We have -- not with reading each other's cursors, but with
ODP's (or something) not getting rebuilt when they should. Unique
cursor names will insure that SQL correctly handles everything it
should. You see, in our case we have the same object name in multiple
libraries -- with initial library lists controlling which libraries
are available at any given time. But we have run into issues when we
need to go across libraries against the same object name. Activation
groups are one thing, but unique cursor names are the rest of the
picture.
