RE: SQL select into [array]?

define a data structure with single fields and overlay it with the
array and
Fetch the result into the data structure.
(Array elements are not supported by embedded SQL)

MyDS DS
Fld1 Like(RefFld)
Fld2 Like(RefFld)
Fld3 Like(RefFld)
MyArr Like(RefFld) Dim(3) Overlay(MyDS)

Exec SQL Select MyFld1, MyFld2, MyFld3
Into :MyDS
From .... ;

If you try this for yourself, you will see that SQL will generate four (not
three) receivers, those being Fld1, Fld2, Fld3, MyArr. This is apparently
because the preprocessor does not recognize the overlay keyword.
