I am exploring using SPL to store functions that preform specific tasks and return a result. These fuctions i currently store in a library. I am hoping that by making them SPL code that I can save the time a 4GL uses to verify the SQL's involved in the task. What i am having trouble doing is getting the SQL procedure to execute and return a value. sample code block that i am currently trying: main define v float define s char(40) let s = "execute procedure p() into v" prepare e_SPL from s execute e_SPL display v end main help! thanks
