qmqry runs interactively but not in batch

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is an appeal to someone who actually knows something about sql.  All I
know I learned from rtvqmqry.  

The following is a qmqry extracted from a query400 object and given some
parameters.  It runs fine interactively either with message prompting or by
providing it all the setvar values it needs.  It will not run in batch when
provided the same setvar values that work interactively.  The error message
is:  "Message . . . . :   Keyword BY not expected. Valid tokens: FOR WITH
ORDER UNION OPTIMIZE."

The offending query looks like this:

 SELECT                                                                     
   ALL       T02.ORDTYP, T02.ORD#, T01.VND, T01.ITM, T01.STY, T01.QTYORD,   
             T01.LINSTS, LINCST*(QTYORD) AS EXTCST, T01.SHPYR, T01.SHPMD    
   FROM      NEWFIL/LIN T01,                                                
             NEWFIL/ORD T02                                                 
   WHERE     T01.ORD# = T02.ORD#                                            
     AND    (SRCCD = &S OR SRCCD = &SM)                                     
     AND     SHPYR BETWEEN &Y AND 99                                        
     AND     SHPMD BETWEEN &MD AND 1231                                     
     AND     VND = &V                                                       
     AND     ITM = &I                                                       
     AND     STY = &SL                                                      
   ORDER BY  T01.SHPYR ASC, T01.SHPMD ASC

                                                            

I know the variable names are cryptic, I tried to shorten them to see if the
length of the where clause was a problem.  I've also tried passing one long
string for the where clause which doesn't work because it's over 55
characters.  We're running v4r3 and don't have the full sql package.

I'd be grateful for any insight, even something that begins "Of course it
doesn't work..."
