Using a simple example... I was wondering if there was a way to handle
unknow amount of records I would like to send back via a result set?

Currently, I define a DS with a size.

/* create the result set.                            
d resarray        ds                  occurs(9999)      
d   field1                       5  0                
d   field2                      15                   
d   field3                       9  2                

I know, a DS can have a lot of entries, 9999 entries, but what if I need
20,000 rows returned?  Is there a way to append a DS entry on to the current
result set, instead of filling the whole result set at one time?  

**** fill 5 DS with data...

c                   eval      i = 5                      
/*                                                       
c/exec sql                                               
c+ set result sets array :resarray  for :i rows          
c/end-exec                                               

************* But I would rather have it work like this... ******

1.  read a record
2.  load a simple one record DS 
3  append DS to result set.
4. goto 1

Is this possible?  Thanks, tim
