You can't just replace RLA with SQL.

Let us all be thankful that we (unlike those using other DB platforms) have both. When the only tool in the box is a hammer, every problem will look like a nail.

And as dogmatic as I am about keeping programming languages pure (e.g, refusing to call BASIC derivatives that don't use statement numbers "BASIC," eschewing RPG/FREE with extreme prejudice, and continuing to write RPG Cycle programs wherever the implicit WHILE loop is useful), I'm the very soul of open-mindedness compared with some of the attitudes I see with respect to database platforms other than DB2/400.
