Re: Creating temporary table

Peter,

I liked your original idea more. It seemed to be more efficient - especially from the programming point of view.

... good idea, if you create C Module with CRTCMOD SYSIFCOPT(*NOIFSIO), then tmpnam() returns a name in QTEMP.

All these methods seem odd - that made me think that maybe there is
some better way...

Is there any way you can duplicate it without using CRTDUPOBJ? If so you could use the tmpnam function (or one of its cousins) to create a temporary file in IFS in /tmp without worrying about getting a conflict.
