RE: Can SQL recognize a nested data structure?

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

When you fetch 10 rows at once, how do you 'move in and out data from 
JP010 to JPPfields'?

Ben,
 I see no reason why you need to define each of the DS fields again in the
MODS.  Just move in and out data from JPP010 to JPPfields, defining
JPPfields with a LIKE(JPP010) instead (this defines JPPfields as the size 
of
JPP010).  Just be sure you are certain there are no columns returned as
null.

Thank you,

I'm trying to load records into a MODS which I want define as having all
the fields of a particular external file with the addition of a field to
hold the RRN.  I can do this for single-row fetches, but how do I do this
for multiple-row fetches where I need to use a MODS?

<code fragment>

d JPP010        e ds                  qualified
d DS1             ds                  occurs(10)
d   RRN                         10s 0
d   JPPfields                         likeds(JPP010)

c/exec SQL
c+ declare C1 cursor for
c+   select rrn(A), A.*
c+     from JRP010 A
c+    where R1COM = :Company and R1IYR * 100 + R1IWK between
c+                  :FromIYRIWK and :ToIYRIWK
c/end-exec

c/exec SQL
c+ open C1
c/end-exec

c/exec SQL
c+ fetch from C1 for 10 rows into :DS1
c/end-exec

</code fragment>

I'm getting an SQL precompiler error stating "host structure array DS1 not
defined or not usable".  When I bypass the SQL precompiler by using
CRTBNDRPG, I get a little more info:  "LIKEDS keyword is not allowed 
within
a data structure that is not qualified"  I could try just defining each
field in JPP010 in the data structure, but there a lot of fields to define
and didn't want to make the code more bloated than I had to.

Has anyone tried something like this successfully?  We're on V5R2.
