RE: SPL Question

I believe the following should work. Create procedure insert_rec() returning int; define serial_val int; Insert into tab1(my_serial) values (0);Let serial_val = dbinfo('sqlca.sqlerrd1'); return(serial_val); -----Original Message----- From: ROBERT B VORBROKER [mailto:ROBVORBROKER@prodigy.net] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 3:11 PM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: SPL Question OK I'm asking this for a member of our User Group and don't have the appropriate Manual handy... IN Stored Procedure I want to insert a record with a SERIAL column and somehow have the value of the SERIAL field returned to the calling program. In 4GL the value of the serial is stored somewhere in SQLCA (unless my mind has truly turned to MUSH) - please help me remember Can I pick this off and return this value from a Stored Procedure? I know a SP returns a status but I thought that was just whether or not the SP executed properly - but it's been too damm long since I've written in SPL. Someone? Anyone?? Rob Vorbroker
