  • Subject: Re: Null fields in SQLRPGLE.
  • From: Marco Facchinetti <facchinetti@xxxxxxxxx>

I understand your suggestion but my purpose is to get the
ability to chain the sql "nullind" to a field that will not
change if the numbers (or the order) of the fileds included
by the "SELECT *....". 
In the listing I posted the index of the nullarray (21) was
from the precompiler listing, actually if I remove, add or
change the order of the fields in the file is not anymore
21...
