thank you - this is exactly what i am doing...

lets say i have built an sql statement...

'select * from SRVACHI where ACI010 = '12' and ACI015 = '123
and ACI085 = '123' order by ACI010, ACI015, ACI085'

i then want to pull the very first row information out and examine it...

I'm doing it as such, below... but I am getting a -822 sqlcode on the
fetch...


exec sql include sqlda;

exec sql
prepare s1_select from :g_sqlstmt

exec sql
exec sql describe s1_select into :sqlda using system names;

exec sql
declare c1 cursor for s1_select;

exec sql
open c1;

exec sql
fetch next from c1 using descriptor :sqlda;

what am I missing?



I intend to examine it as...

for i = 1 to sql_num;

sqlvar = sql_var(i);
if sqlname = ' ';
leave;
endif;

endfor;

I'm not totally sure that I understand what you are trying to do... For
example, SQLDATA is defined where?

However, you probably need something like
exec sql fetch first from c1 into :SQLDATA
so SQL knows where to put the data.

It you are just beginning with embedded SQL, you might want to take a look
at this article:

Here's another about handling the return codes:

given the following scenario, how do I extract the values from SQLDATA?

exec sql
prepare s1_select from :g_sqlstmt;

exec sql
declare c1 scroll cursor for s1_select;

exec sql open c1;

exec sql fetch first from c1;


My attempt is...


exec sql include sqlda;
exec sql describe s1_select into :sqlda;

for i = 1 to sql_num;

sqlvar = sql_var(i);
if sqlname = ' ';
leave;
endif;

SQLDATA???? contains null when the fetch did indeed fetch a record.
