Working with multiple records

["Smith, Nelson (nsmith)" <NSmith@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK. Well hopefully, someone else has asked this question before,
although I couldn't really find a lot about it in the archives.  

I'm calling a web service that returns either one record or multiple
records. Wsdl2Rpg has generated the stubs ok for both methods and now I
am trying to figure out how to deal with what is being returned.  The
calling program for the individual record method receives a ds back that
is based on this ds in the stub:

D tns_Product_t   DS                  based(pDummy)  
D                                     qualified      
D  CategoryID                   10I 0                
D  Discontinued                   N                  
D  ProductID                    10I 0                
D  ProductName                 128A   varying        
D  QuantityPerUnit...                                
D                              128A   varying        
D  ReorderLevel                  5I 0                
D  SupplierID                   10I 0                
D  UnitsInStock                  5I 0                
D  UnitsOnOrder                  5I 0                
D  UnitPrice                    31S15                

That is easy enough to deal with just using the qualified ds fields.

However, the calling program that receives multiple records back, just
receives a pointer to this ds consisting of a data and a schema
structure:

D tns_GetProductsDatasetResultMvd_t...                   
D                 DS                  based(pDummy)      
D                                     qualified          
D  any                       16384A   varying            
D  schema                     4096A   varying   

Looking at the contents of these structures, everything needed seems to
be there, but I am not sure of the easiest way to use it.  Are there
additional procedures that would parse out the data, based on what is in
the schema part or do I have to do all that by hand? 

My primary objective here would be to just create a table and insert the
records as directly as possible from my calling program and I would hope
that there are some tools available to do that.   

Thanks for all your help.

Sorry, there are no more FAQs at the moment. However, for the future I
plan to write FAQs for each 
question that is asked more than once.
