Create Procedure - Server Message: Number 102, Severity 15

Adaptive Server Enterprise/11.5.1

I am trying to complete a Stored Procedure for a client that is using a very old version of ASE, no chance of upgrade at this time.

During the Create process I am getting; Server Message:  Number  102, Severity  15 on the below code. Both errors point to a 'Set' command. It works in SQL2008, but I need a SYBASE solution.


Server Message:  Number  102, Severity  15
Procedure 'getConsumerID', Line 14:
Incorrect syntax near '@ConsumerID'.
Server Message:  Number  102, Severity  15
Procedure 'getConsumerID', Line 23:
Incorrect syntax near '@outvar'.

create procedure 
getConsumerID @outvar char(9) OUTPUT

as

	declare @ConsumerID int

begin transaction
	select @ConsumerID = fnPartID
	from tblParticipantNo

	if @ConsumerID is null 
begin
		set @ConsumerID = 1
		insert into tblParticipantNo values(@ConsumerID)
		end
	else
	begin
		update tblParticipantNo set fnPartID=@ConsumerID + 1
end

Select @ConsumerID
set @outvar=@ConsumerID
commit transaction

Select allOpen in new window

Thanks in advance
