It must be Monday, what have I done now?

I am still trying to get SQL experience, and by way of a test I have
coded the following:

<procedure A>
C+ declare RHLCCursor scroll cursor              
C+     for RHLCSelect                            
c/end-exec                                       
c/exec sql                                       
c+ prepare RHLCSelect                            
c+    from :RHLC_Select                          
c/end-exec                                       

<procedure B>
C/exec sql                                                     
C+ open RHLCCursor                                             
C+     using :@i_HLCN08WNR                                     
C/end-exec                                                     

Now the compiler doesn't like this, it returns this error:
SQL0504  35    3542  Position 14 Cursor RHLCCURSOR is not declared.

(I have translated the error from dutch, so it might not match the
english description 1:1).

Remains the question: what have I missed here? I have declared the
cursor in procedure A and use it in procedure B. Is it so that because
they are procedures that the scope of the cursors has been limitted to
the defining procedure? I would like to keep the code in procedures (and
separate).

Any thoughts are welcome. 


Thanks in advance for your precious time,
