I thought this would work, as there is no syntax error using double quotes

D SelectOne       S            500A   INZ('SELECT ITNBR, ITDSC,  -
D                                     ITTYP -
D                                     FROM AMFLIB/ITEMASA  -
D                                     WHERE SUBSTR(FIL44,43,1)="R" -
D                                     ORDER BY')

But no records are selected on the OPEN MYCSR, but when I comment the
substr D spec, it retrieves ALL records.

I've searched midrange and seen some use of the CAT command, but not as a
solution.
