Hi,

I have an account file. I need to delete rows corresponding to each account read from the 2 diff tables.

Steps performed in COBOL-DB2 program are:

step 1: read account file
step 2: perform delete until end of file
step 2a: delete rows for accountn from table1
step 2b: delete rows for accountn from table2
step 2c: read account file

Now, I want to display total count for number of records deleted.

One solution, is to perform select count(*) followed by delete for table1 and table2 respectively. Doing so I have to make 4 db2 calls for each account.

I remember spufing the delete query gives the count. Is there any variable which stores this count, which I can use to get the total count?

Thanks,
Rahul.

Hello,

SQLERRD(3) will have the number of rows deleted after each DELETE is executed.
