Hi All,
Till now i used SQLCODE in Cobol-Db2 programs for verifying the successful execution of the query or end of records and any abend etc.

But when i analyzing a program i came across SQLSTATE instead of SQLCODE. Does it has an advantage over SQLCODE?

Which one is preferred to use and why?

Seniors please provide some information.

Thanks
Sri.

Hi Sri,

Practically speaking, you should use SQLSTATE values when you are concerned about portability since SQLSTATE values are common across many database managers.
