RE: MIR signature version 1 -- RPG400-L

Yes, what Milan and Peter are saying will mask the error code, but
you'll still have to check the null indicator before using the
variable... So you are in the same place. Just not getting that sql
code. (bombing when you try to write the data probably.

I'm not sure what else to try.

Library lists?
Multiple versions of the file?

Ok, I think I understand what your saying peter, but my concern is why
is it returning a null value.....because it should be returning
110.45.....I know that is beyond the scope of this forum, but the same
statement runs in strsql......

Hi Douglas,

What SQL0305 is telling you is that you did not provide a variable for
the null indicator value on your fetch statement.

C*---Fetch the Result and place into Variable
C/EXEC SQL
C+ FETCH C1 INTO :ZSUM
C/END-EXEC

should look like

C*---Fetch the Result and place into Variable
C/EXEC SQL
C+ FETCH C1 INTO :ZSUM, :ZNULLIND
C/END-EXEC

and as Milan mentioned, define ZNULLIND as

D ZNULLIND S 5I 0

Here is what IBM says about 305:

SQL0305

Message Text:

Indicator variable required.

Cause Text:

A FETCH, an embedded SELECT, a CALL or a SET or VALUES INTO statement
has resulted in a null value, but an indicator variable was not
specified for host variable &2. The relative position of the host
variable in the INTO clause or parameter list is &1. If the host
variable name is *N, an SQLDA was specified.

Recovery Text:

Specify an indicator variable, and precompile the program again.

SQLCODE or SQLCODEs:

-305

SQLSTATE or SQLSTATEs:

22002 22004

Of course, it would help if I knew what the status code -305 meant
but, in

any case, I would cast the retrieved field to be the same size as the

'fetch' defines.

To wit:

SELECT cast(SUM(SLEXT$) as dec (9,2)) FROM SLSTRNL5 etc.

As much as I hate showing my own stupidity more than once a day ( I

flat out stuck) Embedded SQL

I am reading a file and using the values within that file to create an

SQL

that will go out and select a sum of sales figures for a particular

customer.

Here is the relevant SQL code:

C*---Prepare SQL Statement

C/EXEC SQL

C+ DECLARE C1 CURSOR FOR

C+ SELECT SUM(SLEXT$) FROM SLSTRNL5

C+ WHERE SLACCT= :CUSTNO

C+ AND SLTDAT > :ZBDATEN

C+ AND SLTDAT <= :ZEDATEN

C+ AND SLCLAS > 1

C+ AND SLSHRT = ' '

C/END-EXEC

I then open the cursor with the following:

C*---Open the Cursor

C/EXEC SQL

C+ OPEN C1

C/END-EXEC

I then am running a fetch statement with the following:

C*---Fetch the Result and place into Variable

C/EXEC SQL

C+ FETCH C1 INTO :ZSUM

C/END-EXEC

ZSUM is defined as an 9,2 on the D spec

Everything so far, at least to my eyes looks good...

However before I process that ZSUM data (output to a report) I check
the

SQLCOD and I am getting a return code of -305..I have checked the

variables

that I am passing in, such as CUSTNO (defined on the D SPEC
correctly),

ZBDATEN and ZEDATEN are also defined on the D SPEC correctly...so I
have

no

clue what variable the system is balking at.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Douglas
