Patti,

 

I have to admit I didn’t look at this too closely, I just cut & pasted it from 
R:DOCS, I would assume they just haven’t updated this to Declare Cursor. You 
could check with the Dream Team for sure though.

Hi Paul,

I haven't used SET POINTER for at least 15 years.  I didn't know it was still 
supported.  My code says DECLARE CURSOR.   All other command files I've used 
lately work ok and end up getting error 100 when they run out of records.  I 
don't even understand what happened here.  

 

My problems always seem so bizarre.  

 

Patti

Patti, You are using a pointer to access rows of data in a table. Either all 
rows have already been found, or no rows satisfy the condition of the SET 
POINTER command. This condition sets the value of the variable specified in the 
SET POINTER and NEXT commands rather than the variable specified with the SET 
ERROR VARIABLE command.

 

According to R:DOCS; You are using a pointer to access rows of data in a table.

Hello,

 

I'm writing a command file with a declared cursor.  I check, as I always do, 
for error code 100 to indicate I've come to the end of my records.  But this 
program keeps running and running. 

 

I figured out it gets an error code 406 when it runs out of records to read.  I 
don't know where to find error code descriptions.  Does anyone know what this 
code means?

 

Thanks,

Patti Jakusz
