>>Use a join. Build the data you want, the way you want it and then go get
it.

I found that in most cases the best way for me to build the data I want and
then print a report, let's say is:

1.  Create  a sql in STRQM.  You can easily test and display the results
here.
2.  In your cl program use STRQMQRY to run your sql and send the results to
a physical file (in qtemp).
3.  Write an rpg cycle program to print your report.

Much easier to debug and test than embedded sql in my opinion.  You can
also embed variables in your sql statements.
