<div><p>A COBOL program can be written to use the SQLCA to check return

status for embedded SQL statements, or the program can use the SQL diagnostics
|

area to check return status.</p>
|

<div class="section"><p>To use the SQL diagnostics area instead of the SQLCA, use the

SET OPTION SQL statement with the option SQLCA = *NO. </p>

</div>
|

<div class="section"><p>When using the SQLCA, a COBOL program that contains SQL statements
|

must include one or both of the following: </p>
|

<ul><li>An SQLCODE variable declared as PICTURE S9(9) BINARY, PICTURE S9(9) COMP-4,

directly or by using the SQL INCLUDE statement. When coding it directly, make

sure it is initialized. Using the SQL INCLUDE statement requests the inclusion
