Re: Can you suggest how I can connect to another database in SQL reading the remote file and updating a local file

Hi Darryl,

This link will take you to an article from Michael Sansoterra, which
was published in the Four Hundred Guru on July 25, 2012. It refers to
DB2 for i 7.1.

Hope this helps.

Yours truly,

I need to be able to read a remote table and update a local table.

I have set up the remote database entries and have used connect. What I
cannot find documentation on is how to use 2 files on different machines.

When I connect to system B, all the tables are in system B.

Is there a way to do a select from system B and insert into system A?
Example:

Insert into fileA [on system A] (select * from FileA [on system B] )

TIA
