Sorry all. There was a certain amount of nonsence in my previous posting on this topic.

The failing sql command is an fact a select into.

It fails when trying to retrieve a null value. The insert worked (I can retrieve the record
if I don't ask for the null field, so evidently the insert code is correct.

-209 is generated by ecpg.

I still don't know what "indicator" means though.

If I can reasonably be expected to understand the term, there still remains the bug that -209
is undocumented.
