I concur - SQL does not guarantee that rows are returned in any order unless you specify the "order by" clause. Different environments can result in different results.

Subject: Select Max value question 2

Do I have to do anything to clean up when I run multiple Select into
statements in an RPG program? I'm seeing joblog messages like ODP not
deleted.

My RPG statement looks like this:

exec sql SELECT cls, max(qty) into :pkgGroup, :wkqty
from whso313f
where sty = :pkgStyle
group by cls
fetch first row only;

The wrong result CLS = 4 is returned, verified with debug and it's being
written to another table.

If I break before that statement, and F3 and then run the statement on
STRSQL, I get the correct answer, CLS = '2'
