AUTOFETCH

Sets the AUTOFETCH attribute on SELECT statements that are run on Microsoft SQL Server data sources. Compiling with this directive can help the performance of your application. This directive works only if the program is also compiled with directive SQL(TARGETDB=MSSQLSERVER). It also serves as a primitive directive for the BEHAVIOR directive option.

Note:

Errors on a cursor OPEN are deferred until the subsequent FETCH when AUTOFETCH is enabled (applies to UNIX environments only).
BEHAVIOR=OPTIMIZED for MS SQL Server enables AUTOFETCH
Errors on a cursor OPEN are deferred until the subsequent FETCH when AUTOFETCH is enabled
