RE: Committing data without assigning to a variable in SQL

So based on this revision, I only need this, correct?:

/free
  SQLMlist = 'insert into sswdppp (';
  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + 'select pskdl1, pskdl2, pskdl3, psyear, psmdl,';
  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' pstyp, psexcl,psinbt, psuqty';
  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' from sst25 where concat(PSKDL2, PSKDL3) ';
  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' between ' + apos + shortyy + cmm + apos;
  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' AND '+ apos + nextsyy + nmm + apos + ')';
/end-free
C*
C/Exec SQL
C+ PREPARE SQL2 FROM :SQLMlist
C/End-exec
C*
C/Exec SQL
C+ EXECUTE IMMEDIATE :SQLMlist
C/End-exec
C*
C/Exec SQL
C+ commit
C/End-exec

I tried it this way, but still come up empty.  However, if I copy the
data in the SQLMlist variable and run it directly in the SQL interpreter
it appears to work.

Thanks again,

Brian.

Try EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, since you are not getting data into the program
there
is no need to create a cursor.  If this is temporary file and the
program
does not do anything else that requires commitment control, compile the
program with COMMIT(*NONE).  Otherwise you will have to control
commitment
just like any other situation with SQL.

C/Exec SQL EXECUTE IMMEDIATE :SQLMlist

Hi All,

 

I have a two tables from which I read from one table and write the
results to another.  I changed my code to use a PREPARE statement, but
the system doesn't appear to write anything to the target table.  Do I
need to do a FETCH command into a variable in order to write to the
table? If so, how would I get it to write to the other table?

 

Here's the snippet of code:

 

/free

  SQLMlist = 'insert into sswdppp (';

  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + 'select pskdl1, pskdl2, pskdl3, psyear, psmdl,';

  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' pstyp, psexcl,psinbt, psuqty';

  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' from sst25 where concat(PSKDL2, PSKDL3) ';

  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' between ' + apos + shortyy + cmm + apos;

  SQLMlist = SQLMlist + ' AND '+ apos + nextsyy + nmm + apos + ')';

/end-free

 

C/Exec SQL

C+ PREPARE SQL2 FROM :SQLMlist

C/End-exec

C*

C/Exec SQL

C+ DECLARE C2 CURSOR for SQL2

C/End-exec

C*

C/Exec SQL

C+ OPEN C2

C/End-exec

C*

C* Do I need to add another /EXEC SQL here???

C*

C/Exec SQL

C+ Close C2

C/End-exec

C*

C/Exec SQL

C+ commit

C/End-exec

 

Another question I have is if I can compress the /Exec SQL lines down,
or must they remain on separate lines?

 

Thank you!

 

Brian.
