RE: Free format vs SQL

Perhaps you could propose a standard whereby you wrap the SQL in a
procedure?  I know; it sounds lame.

       dow sqlcod=*zeros;
       count=*zeros;
       sqlcod=getPllineCount(VDLPO: COUNT)

with
     C/EXEC SQL
     C+ select count(*) into :COUNT from plline where pdlpo=:VDLPO
     C/END-EXEC
in your procedure
