Closed as program error.
Error description
Although the rest of the SQLCA is generated in uppercase in response to an EXEC SQL INCLUDE SQLCA statement, the SQLERRD definition contains some lowercase characters: 05 SQLERRD PIC s9(9) comp-5 OCCURS 6 TIMES. This has no effect on program function as the compiler is case insensitive (for other than literals). It may however affect programs reading the processed text from SYSMDECK or using the PRTEXIT.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of the V5.x and V6.2 Enterprise COBOL * * Compiler who are also using the integrated * * Db2 coprocessor (SQL compiler option). * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrect output: When using the Db2 * * Coprocessor with the * * COBOL V6.2 compiler, the generated * * SQLCA contains lower case characters * * which could cause quality checks for * * the usage of only upper case characters * * for all COBOL-syntax in the MDECK file * * to fail. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * **************************************************************** The data item SQLERRD in the Enterprise COBOL compiler is defined as follows: 05 SQLERRD PIC s9(9) comp-5 OCCURS 6 TIMES.
Problem conclusion
The data item definition for SQLERRD has been updated in the compiler, so that it only contains upper case characters 05 SQLERRD PIC S9(9) COMP-5 OCCURS 6 TIMES.
