  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A problem would occur when doing the    *
  *                      auto-check processing with ADBTEP2      *
  *                      when adding related objects to an       *
  *                      internal table. This error would        *
  *                      manifest itself as SQLCODEN501 /        *

  *                      but this error would only appear in     *
  *                      the ADBDIAG output if it was being      *
  *                      produced, otherwise, the WSL would      *
  *                      just end wit no adverse return code.    *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The program was changed to end with an adverse return code if
  any unexpected SQLCODE is produced by any SQL statement and
  make it obvious to the end user that there was a problem.
  Additionally, the program was corrected to preserve cursors
  that need to remain open even if a commit happens which will
  prevent the SQLCODEN501 / SQLCODE=-501 problem.
