Not as far as I know, Mark. I just tried a SRC PF with RCDLEN(112) and it
failed, showing only the first 80 characters.
QMQRY is worse - the limit is 79. And embedded SQL in RPG IV is even worse
- 73 characters - as the comment portion is not included. (Can you put
embedded SQL inside /free blocks?) You have to use C to get a choice of
record width - check out the CRTCQLCI command, which lets you specify the
source width for SQL statements.
But this raises another matter in my mind, viz., long, strung-out SQL
statements vs. shorter, formatted statements. SQL, being unstructured and
containing all kinds of processing in one statement (similar to nesting
function calls in C but not often recommended) is hard enough to
understand, to see what is going on. It really helps me to separate the
various clauses to different lines, to put column names on separate lines,
to align opening and closing parentheses vertically, to use some indenting,
etc. This all is aimed at clarity. It also means that I don't use long
lines much. Sort of like pretty-print for program code.

Does anyone know how to make RUNSQLSTM recognize more than 80 bytes per line
or another command to use (perhaps within STRSQL) to read a longer source
command record.
