Johnson,

There are a couple of ways to handle input parameters.  If there are dates
involved I could explain how to use the built in functions in Query to handle
dynamic date selection.

If there are other criteria, then the best solution I have heard of is to prompt
for the selection criteria in the master CL program, load this data in a file,
join your queried files to this master file.

As someone else mentioned, the command to run a Query from a command line or a
CL program is RunQry.
