I am writing a SQL script that retrieves an order number from the order
header file filtered by BOL. The next statement uses the order number to
retrieve data from another file.

I have
- used CREATE VARIABLE
- Select Order into VARIABLE from table

The select fails and will not populate the VARIABLE field.

How do I achieve this?

TIA, Darryl Freinkel.
