You could try the following: Extract the earliest and latest date from
each file. Then, analyze the dates in your request and if they fall
within one file, build your SQL request acordingly.

Hi,
   I have 3 big files with the same record format, they are divided by
date => the first are the most recent records, the second the old
records and the third the historical records (totally are 63 milion of
records). Now I have to run SQL (into an SQLRPGLE) on all of these three
files order by date and other three fields with some selection and I've
the problem below:
when I run SQL for a period that is completely included in the first
file the SQL (it works using UNION) read all three files and naturally
it works for for too much hours.
How can I optimize my SQL statement, any ideas???

Thanks a lot
