Most Embedded SQL statements can use persistent binding. However, Table 9-1 and Table 9-2 list Embedded SQL commands that cannot use persistent binding. All other Embedded SQL commands—including Transact-SQL commands—can use persistent binding for some or all host variables.
Whether a statement’s bindings persist and how long they persist depends on the type of statement—particularly, on whether the statement uses a cursor.
