Re: SQLSTATE 01004 now appears with v7.1 ?

[Stuart Rowe <rowestu@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've also written encapsulated procedures to deal with common SQL needs,
like isSQLError( sqlca ), isSQLWarning( sqlca ), isSQLSuccess( sqlca ),
isSQLRecordNotFound( sqlca ), and such as that.  I pass myself the entire
SQLCA since it is handy and contains everything needed including error
message info for my sendSQLException( sqlca ).
