I do an UPDATE command using SQLEXEC.
I *know* that the conditions specified (WHERE clause) cannot be matching, yet I seem to be getting a "1" back (updating only 1 record each call). The record is *NOT* being updated, which is what I want, but the return code is telling me to update a list that is shown to the user to indicate records updated.

The Help says:
"Numeric data type.
SQLEXEC( ) returns the number of result sets if there is more than one. SQLEXEC( ) returns 0 if it is still executing and returns 1 when it has finished executing. SQLEXEC( ) returns –1 if a connection level error occurs.

SO what does it return after an UPDATE command? I had guessed that it would return the number of records updated but that is obviously wrong.

Thanks
Jim
