Marco may have the answer. Probably some difference between the SQL settings in RUN SQL and your RPG.

You didn't tell us what the discrepancy in bindates was. Too many records, missing records, what? Comparing the RUN SQL results from your RPG results would probably throw light on the problem.

And you are checking SQLCODE or SQLSTT after each SQL statement?

Hello all,

I have a program where I'm making use of global temporary tables. This is my first experience with them, believe it or not, in a 36-year career. I tested out the queries I wanted to use by putting them in the Run SQL Scripts function in ACS and running them there. All worked fine. I then put them into my RPG application program and tested it and got different results for one of the queries. I've pored over the SQL statements and unless I'm totally blind they are identical. Yet, the query that builds the BINDATES table in my application program yields a slightly different (and inaccurate) result set than the one in Run SQL Scripts.
