Accessing 4GL cursors with prepared & executed SQL

Greetings -- I have created a 4GL scroll cursor named c_jdate intended to update three columns. As long as I keep my SQL in 4GL, I can use update statements with a "where current of c_jdate" clause without a hitch. Unfortunately, I am forced to prepare and execute one of my update statements (due to syntax problems). When I do, the "where current of c_jdate" clause suddenly becomes problematic: --- Program stopped at "phhours.4gl", line number 67. SQL statement error number -507. Cursor (c_jdate) not found. --- I checked Informix's Error Message Reference for -507 and it didn't help (the cursor is open, has not been misspelled, and has not been freed). Is there some way that I can overcome this problem? Is there some sort of universal reference to cursors that I can use? "where current of syscursors.c_jdate" ??? Any ideas?
