Greetings,

I'm little puzzled : is EX and EXEC in
[code]
SQL SQLMSS
EX/EXEC [procedure];
END

are equivalent or different?

Documentation talks only about MAINTAIN language command EX.

My suspicions are :
1. They differs: EX - for procedures without output, EXEC - for procedures with output
2. They are equivalent.

Can somebody clear this?

Alex

Hi Alex,

As far as I am aware, the EX/EXEC are equivalent.
Are you getting an error or having a problem?

In the situation described you are probably better off using the command -INCLUDE, rather than EXEC e.g.

SQL SQLMSS
-INCLUDE fexname
