Hi Darryl,

what you want is a cursor declaration for a dynamic statement?

wSql = 'select ... from ...';
exec sql prepare stmSql from :wSql;
exec sql declare csrSql cursor for stmSql;
exec sql open csrSql;

This should work.

AFAIK you cannot declare with execute immediate.

I have not done this in ages and do not remember the details or have a
program as an example.



I need to use a combination of a SQL DECLARE with a EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.



My program will not compile.



Example:

wSql = 'DECLARE FILE scroll cursor for select';

exec sql execute immediate :wSql;



TIA,
