Re: SQL FETCH -- RPG400-L

It's compiled with *NONE.

Using the same program objects but different file
libraries (live and test) it works correctly in test
and not in the other.  I copied the live data into the
test library and then got the error in both.  So I
started deleting records one by one thinking perhaps
there was a bad record - like an unexpected null or
invalid date data.  But it continued to fail until I
deleted all the records.  Then when I started
re-keying records it worked correctly again.

I have no idea yet why this is happening.  As a work
around, I'm closing and reopening the cursor all the
time.

I only know when the users started complaining about
it so when it really started happening I don't know.  

This system is at v4r4.

Thanks for everyone's input.
