RE: SQL null indicators: what am I doing wrong

["Tyler, Matt" <mattt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rick, 
        I quickly looked it up in the V5.2 SQL programming with host
languages (pg 6-7) and of course Cobol examples.  I then tested it out
(after your response) and nope its not 4S 0.  Error message states it needs
to be of type SMALLINT.  So I changed the type to be 5I 0 and recompiled and
it worked.  I also am using MODS in my testing.

So, I am not certain why it's giving you the error.  Is this on compile or
runtime?



Thank you,

Matt,

not in any of the examples I've seen.  4b is acceptable as well, but
5i seemed to be the consensus I've seen.

thanks,

Rick
