When I first started writing imbedded SQL, I had that problem. It turned
out the variable receiving the SUM value wasn't large enough to receive the
result. If you use SQL, learn the error codes and check for them!

Folks, I'm working on an article that's tentatively titled "Classic
Traps and How to Avoid Them". The general idea is to discuss the classic
mistakes that programmers make while programming, and (where necessary)
explain how to avoid that.

One just came to mind that we see here regularly -- "The exact same
statement works in interactive SQL. Why doesn't it work in my program?"

Well... almost always it's because it's _not_ the "exact same
statement." Often there are host variables or other elements that
require changing between the two.

Use statements in the environments for which they are intended. And
if _anything_ changes, then start looking there for the resolution.
