You do know that an SQL VIEW does not include any index automatically, right?

Right, and if there's a process for attaching an index to an SQL VIEW, so that RLA can access it by key, I don't see it, and if I knew about it, I don't remember it. (There certainly OUGHT to be one, if there isn't!)

One difference: when I check the number of records, the DDS LF returns the number of records in the PF (10, for the "guinea pig" library I was given), while the SQL VIEW returns the number that the WHERE clause finds (only 1).

But other than that, I just ran a trace of everything that goes on between returning from the SETLL-equivalent call, and issuing the READ-equivalent call, and in some 150-odd instructions, the only difference is an extra iteration of a loop that massages the aforementioned total number of records, so it can be displayed.

I'm now going to do something in RPG (thanks, Chuck), that will hopefully simulate the point-of-failure, to see what *it* does.
