Hi Jay,
AFAIK a cursor has to be declared in the same „compilation unit“ where it
is used (opened/fetched). 
Maybe a UDTF is a solution? You can write the whole logic in RPG and
dynamic SQL - and you can declare a cursor on the UDTF where you like.

presentation about UDTFs

Subject: sqlrpgle - cursor declared in exportable proc

is it possible to declare an sql in an exportable procedure, and use
that

cursor in the consuming executable?

tried it but my consuming RPG pgm will not compile, saying it cannot
find

the c1 cursor...

What am I missing or is it just not possible?

tia
