Here's a brief sketch: C/EXEC SQL C+ DECLARE DYNFIL SCROLL CURSOR FOR DYNSTM C/END-EXEC C* Use MOVE, CAT, etc. to build up the full statement. C* The final result will look something like: C* SELECT KWD,TT,INIT,TTDATE,TTDESC C* FROM TTIND K,TTHDR H C* WHERE (K.TT=H.TTNUM AND K.INIT=H.TTINIT) AND C* KWD= C* ORDER BY KWD,TT DESC C* FOR READ ONLY C* C/EXEC SQL C+ PREPARE DYNSTM FROM :WWHERE C/END-EXEC C/EXEC SQL C+ OPEN DYNFIL USING :WWHERE C/END-EXEC C/EXEC SQL C+ FETCH NEXT FROM DYNFIL INTO :KWD,:TT,:INIT,:TTDATE,:TTDESC C/END-EXEC C/EXEC SQL C+ CLOSE DYNFIL C/END-EXEC Notice that your FETCH has hard-coded the columns you want to return, so you don't want to tinker too much with the SELECT clause.
