Re: Embedded SQL Question

Yeah, that's cool - I've used the Set variable statement to do this, as I recall - use a host variable as in set :variable = [some SQL that returns a single value] - and I think I did an execute immediate. But it's been awhile, so be sure to verify it for yourself if you want.

Hi Bill,

I've recently (last week) built this into an RPG Free program that checks for a record in a file.

String = 'values( select count(*) from ' + %Trim(SchemaFile) +
' where ' + %Trim(FieldName) + ' = ' +
Quote + %Trim(AppDefName) + Quote + ') into ?';

Exec SQL prepare S1 from :String;
Exec SQL execute S1 using :Count;

Count gets set to 1..assuming the record exists..

Regards

Kevin
