Does each statement that gets sent to the database has a different statement handle?
Each of these four statements that go to the server would have a different statement handle?
No, not neccessarily - it depends on the underlying implementation. SQL statement handles can be reused - e.g. just execute multiple statements on the same statement handle using SQLExecDirect.
I'm using Clarion for Windows.
Have you asked SoftVelocity support about the underlying driver behaviour for these cases? We can really only describe this process from an ODBC programming perspective, rather than how the Clarion driver layer is accessing/maintaining the statements/objects.
