SQL SELECT access to the database doesn’t care about the sequence of

Understood. However, we have a rule here that DELETE, INSERT, and
UPDATE must reference a physical table. We have VIEWs but these are used
only by SELECT. Further, while all four of these statements can be
written to not care about the sequence of the columns in the table (which
at least doubles the time it takes to code those statements), the RPG
compiler is still being used (here, at least) to generate the data
structures used and, therefore, the order becomes an issue. But, again,
all four of these statements can still be written to not care about the
sequence of the columns in the table even if you are using RPG_generated
data structures. However, that then triples the time it takes to code
those statements.
