BIG thanks Birgitta, the DatFmt(*ISO) on the subfield deifinition solved the issue! I've tried to rename the subfield but that didn't make any difference.
So what I learned by your and Chuck's reply is that explicitly define the date format is a good habit and that the Exec SQL Set Options is a compiler directive only ( I should eventually have known .... ).
Again, thank you :)
Best regards

Hmm, just an idea "date" is a reserved word in SQL and date is also a data type in free format RPG.
Try to rename the subfield date to anything else, may be ISODate.
You may also try to explicitely add the date format to the sub-field definition (fix: DatFmt(*ISO) / free: Date(*ISO) )

Betreff: RE: Embedded sql, multirow fetch and date column
No, it's even worse :), the precompiler throws a SQL5011 "Host structure array ds not defined or not usable" as soon as I put the date column in the ds. If I remove the date column the compile is ok. The SQL5011 points at the Fetch statements in the source.
I've not seen this error when using single row fetch, eventually this has something to do with the multi row fetch?

I don't know what exactly your problem is, but I've never had any problems with (real) date fields used in embedded SQL.
SET OPTION with a date format with a 4 digit year (*ISO, *EUR, *USA or *JIS) will work correctly.
Does your RPG program crash? If so, what's the error message.
If your RPG does not crash, what's the SQL code immediately after the errornous SQL-Statement?

Then I will remove the call to SetSqlOpt, but as the Set Options command is the first statement in the SQL-module, well, something else must be the problem with the date column.

The SET OPTION statement is never executed but only used at compile time.
You can interpret the SET OPTION statement as the H-Specs for embedded SQL.
Like the H-Specs the SET OPTION statement must be the first SQL statement in your source code.
Just add it immediately before the first C-spec in a source with a main procedure (Program) or before the first P-Statement/DCL-PROC in a NOMAIN source.
