...and another example (not from the manual this time) is embedding SQL DML
directly into a procedure without declaring an SQL cursor, as in...

PROCEDURE PREUPDATE RECOVERABLE
BEGIN
  SQL IN <databasename> &
    UPDATE PERSONNEL &
    SET SALARY = 1000000 &
    WHERE EMPLOYEE_CODE = 'MF'
END

(<sigh>, if only!!!) :-)

I don't think a few examples are going to help in the generalized case. You
can download the manuals for free from www.cognos.com/powerhouse. But here's
an example from the manual.

> SET LIST SQL
> SQL DECLARE EMPLIST CURSOR FOR &
> SELECT EMPLOYEE, FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME, &
> EMPLOYEES.BRANCH,BRANCH_NAME &
> FROM EMPLOYEES, BRANCHES
> SCREEN EMPBRANCHC
> CURSOR EMPLIST &
> WHERE (EMPLOYEES.BRANCH = BRANCHES.BRANCH) &
> PRIMARY KEY EMPLOYEE
> __ Sql after substitutions are applied:
__ SELECT EMPLOYEE, FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME,
__ EMPLOYEES.BRANCH, BRANCHES.BRANCH,
__ BRANCH_NAME
__ FROM EMPLOYEES, BRANCHES
__ where EMPLOYEES.BRANCH = BRANCHES.BRANCH

Hi Gang,

Could some kind soul please show me an example of an embedded SQL in
Qdesign?  I would RTFM but, alas, I don't have one.  I think I'm close, but
am still running into problems.  My platform is Powerhouse 820 on VMS.

Thanks,
-John
