The AcuSQL -Pr precompile option causes an error when using an indicator variable to insert null data:  Incorrect syntax near ‘@P3’. This is an example of the indicator variable usage that causes the error:

    EXEC SQL
        INSERT INTO TABLEONE (TABLE_CODE, DATA_FIELD)
                     VALUES (:table-code, :data-field :myind)
    END-EXEC.

There is no such precompile error without the -Pr option but it must be used because of other SQL in the program.

In versions prior to 8.0 there was no error when precompiling. However, at runtime it didn’t insert a null. Instead, the column contained an asterisk.

To resolve the precompile error remove the space between the data item and the indicator variable. 

Instead of 

     :data-field :myind

Use

     :data-field:myind
