RE: SQL Result Sets

["Haas, Matt" <Matt.Haas@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rob,

I'd say that the books about traditional topics (native language programming, 
SQL, system management) are pretty good to excellent with the only down point 
being that some of the information is scattered about over several different 
books. The newer topics (such as the HTTP server and WebSphere) mostly range 
from pitiful to fair. The information you need is in there but there doesn't 
appear to be much though on how to organize the information (from what I 
understand, IBM is spending less on documentation and this is a sign of that). 
Fortunately, for the books that stink, there are usually RedBooks available 
that give useful information.

Matt

You know, everyone seems to like knocking the IBM manuals.  However you, 
and some of the newbies here, have led me to believe that they are not as 
bad as some make them out to be.

Rob,

May be hard to believe, but the standard iSeries DB2 manuals.

I keep PDF versions of:
SQL Reference
SQL Programming Concepts
SQL Programming with Host Languages

and just added the Redbook (mentioned in a post here)
Stored Procedures, Triggers, and UDF on DB2 UDB for iSeries.

I hit them often for my own questions. Luckily, I have a pretty good 
recall
for stuff that I simply read on the way to my own answers.

In this case, I remembered seeing  the "dynamic results sets xx"  clause
during the many times I've looked at stored procedures.  Wasn't a big deal
to open the PDF and copy-paste the example.


HTH,
Charles
