RE: Date field in MODS resultset unusable...

You are probably correct. I just pulled the value off the top of my head as I have been converting timestamp values to character they use 26 characters.
Then use a length of 30 in place of 56. My point was to insert the total length of all the subfields as the length of the ds (storeSalesRs)

Correct me if I'm wrong but my understanding is that a *ISO date field is 10
long.

From the ILE RPG Manual
4-Digit Year Formats
Format Description Format(defualt separator) Valid separators

*ISO International yyyy-mm-dd -

Hi Don, why 56?

Roger: Try putting in a length for storeSalesRs in this case 56 and see
if that works. I've had this type of error on a few of my arrays and
defining a length seems to fix the problem.

I tried your suggestion and changed the MODS to an array

D storeSalesRs ds Dim(1000)
D qualified
D*storeSalesRs ds occurs(1000)
d o_StoreNum 10i 0
d o_StoreName 20a
* Actual dates
d o_AFromDate d

The result was the same. If I try to compile it fails. I get the same
SQL5011 30 520 Position 35 Host structure array STORESALESRS not
defined or not usable.

As soon as I comment out the date field it compiles successfully.

Robert,

What happens if you define it as a DS array (using the DIM keyword
rather
than the OCCURS keyword)?

Hi all,

I'm working on a macine at V7R1,

I have a MODS defined as
d storeSalesRs ds occurs(1000)
d o_StoreNum 10i 0
d o_StoreName 20a
* Actual dates
d* o_AFromDate d

and later I return the result set
Exec SQL
SET RESULT SETS ARRAY :storeSalesRs for :idx ROWS;

If I uncomment the date field o_AFromDate and recompile I get
SQL5011 30 520 Position 35 Host structure array STORESALESRS
not
defined or not usable.

I already attampted to set the datfmt for the SQL (SET OPTION
Datfmt=*ISO)
but this had no effect.

Does anyone have any insight as to what I'm missing?

Thanks,

Robert Rogerson
