HYPHEN-IN-CURSOR

Permits hyphens in cursor names.

Syntax:

[NO]HYPHEN-IN-CURSOR

Parameters:

None

Properties:

Default:	NOHYPHEN-IN-CURSOR
Synonym:	HYPHEN

Comments:

The default is NOHYPHEN-IN-CURSOR (or NOHYPHEN), which does not allow hyphens in cursor names. Specify HYPHEN-IN-CURSOR (or HYPHEN) for backward compatibility with older DB2 mode programs that use hyphenated cursor names.
