 In an ESLQC (SQL embedded in C) program I was getting an error on
 a select (control was transferred as a result of a EXEC SQL WHENEVER
 ERROR GOTO...   statement, to a diagnostic statement) so I added 
 a couple of lines:

	 EXEC SQL INQUIRE_INGRES (:error_buf = ERRORTEXT);
	 printf (\nSQL Error:\n  %s\n", error_buf);

 After adding these 2 lines I can no longer preprocess, I get an
 error msg:

	 Error #19141 : (Syntax) 
	 Syntax error on "(".


 I copied the 2 lines out of version 6 documentation, though we are running
 some version 5. I have included the SQLCA #include.

 Any insights as to what is wrong?
