Errors in the simplest procedures in Progress

I have been using OpenEdge Archtitect for a while to access our database, and manage ODBC access to it. Now I am trying for the first time to figure out how to get stored procedures to work. I followed all the instructions to make sure Java was installed and environment variables set properly.

When I try to create a procedure I get an error:

Error:
[DataDirect]OpenEdge JDBC Driver][OpenEdge] Syntax error in SQL Statement at or about "END" (10713)

All I did was copy-and-paste the "Hello world" example from the "Progress OpenEdge 10 - Data Management_SQL Development_10.2B" book, which I did alter slightly, so that it would use an existing table instead of polluting the database with new test tables. Here's the original, straight from the book:

CREATE PROCEDURE HelloWorld ()
BEGIN
SQLIStatement Insert_HelloWorld = new SQLIStatement (
"INSERT INTO HelloWorld(fld1) values (’Hello World!’)");
Insert_HelloWorld.execute();
END;

Here's my modified version, which shouldn't be a problem (I also read in a different post that the line break in the SQL statement coul dhave been the problem, but that didn't fix it):

CREATE PROCEDURE SprocTest ()
BEGIN
SQLIStatement Select_SprocTest = new SQLIStatement ("SELECT ItemNo, SellPrice FROM Item") ;
Select_SprocTest.execute() ;
END;

Upon searching Google, I found someone who had the same problem, but the solution lead to a link that is now dead: http://www.dbforums.com/other/1663151-errors-simplest-procedures-progress.html

I am trying to run these statements in OpenEdge Architect 10.1C SP4. We are in a Windows 7 / Windows Server 2008 environment.

Please help!
