Bruce,

If your program is RPGLE some might argue that you can put a parameter on 
your CRT... command.  However, just like RPGLE has an H spec, SQLRPGLE has 
something unique for SQL that is much like the H spec:
     C/EXEC SQL
     C+ Set Option
     C+     Naming    = *Sys,
     C+     Commit    = *None,
     C+     UsrPrf    = *User,
     C+     DynUsrPrf = *User,
     C+     Datfmt    = *iso,
     C+     CloSqlCsr = *EndMod
     C/END-EXEC
Notice the "Commit = *None"?  So much easier than remembering the 
parameter on your CRT... statement.

You do also realize that on V5R4 they added a new keyword to CREATE TABLE? 
 You can now put your RCDFMT on it.  Beats creating a table and renaming 
it to get around RPG's RLA requirement that the record format be different 
that the file name, (of course a RENAME f spec beats that into submission 
also).

I have some style issues with that, like why use FH in front of all your 
field names?  Really makes it hard to see all the files that have OT in 
them by browsing the file SYSCOLUMNS on your system.  If you are using 
RPG's RLA and you have OT in two different files then simply use a PREFIX 
on the F spec.  And, four character field names (the FH does not count)?!
