<div><p>To find out when the end of the result table is reached, test the
SQLCODE field for a value of 100 or test the SQLSTATE field for a value of
'02000' (that is, end-of-data). This condition occurs when the FETCH statement
has retrieved the last row in the result table and your program issues a subsequent
FETCH.</p>
<div class="section"><p>For example:</p>
<pre>
IF SQLCODE =100 GO TO DATA-NOT-FOUND.
or
IF SQLSTATE ='02000' GO TO DATA-NOT-FOUND.</pre>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>An alternative to this technique is to code the WHENEVER statement.
Using WHENEVER NOT FOUND can result in a branch to another part of your program,
where a CLOSE statement is issued. The WHENEVER statement looks like this:</p>
<pre>EXEC SQL
<strong>WHENEVER NOT FOUND GO TO</strong> symbolic-address
END-EXEC.</pre>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>Your program should anticipate an end-of-data condition whenever
a cursor is used to fetch a row, and should be prepared to handle this situation
when it occurs.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>When you are using a serial cursor and the end-of-data is reached,
every subsequent FETCH statement returns the end-of-data condition. You cannot
position the cursor on rows that are already processed. The CLOSE statement
is the only operation that can be performed on the cursor.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>When you are using a scrollable cursor and the end-of-data is
reached, the result table can still process more data. You can position the
cursor anywhere in the result table using a combination of the position options.
You do not need to CLOSE the cursor when the end-of-data is reached.</p>
