I believe that if within the while loop exits a command that sets SQLCODE = 100
(—do all your processing here) while loop does not work.

Karen,
Maybe not relevant, but why don’t you use the while-endwhile construction.
If statements are handy, but also a little dangerous
10 if statements in a program will result in 1024 paths through your program

DROP CURSOR c1
DECLARE c1 CURSOR FOR SELECT ....... blah blah blah
OPEN c1
FETCH c1 INTO ..... blah blah blah
while SQLCODE <> 100 THEN
-- do all your processing here
FETCH c1 INTO ..... blah blah blah
endwhile
WRITE 'I AM DONE!'

Well then, I'm guessing it was either Dennis or Alastair! Or both!

And I, for one, have been using it for many of those years.
Cheers, Dennis,

Perhaps someone else shared that with you but I’m been preaching that style for
mucho many years.

Probably a year ago I asked for recommendations of how to use alternative code
for a cursor that had to go through 50,000 rows of data, run hundreds of lines
of code per record, and would periodically lock up. I got a couple examples,
and I picked this one as being the easiest to follow, the simplest and best of
all, IT WORKS! I forgot who gave it to me, but thank you! And perhaps this
will help someone else.
