OPNQRYF QRYSLT Question...

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

Been a LONG time since I've used OPNQRY. Used to do all sorts of tricky
things with it including KILLER searches. Only problem is, all examples
are gone (old job) and I'm in DUH mode. Tried online books (IBM) and
can't seem to find exactly what I need.

Here goes...

Need to be able to pass 2 parameters to a CL which will do OPNQRY on a
file.
The parameters are both 3 characters. The field I'm checking is a Bin
Label location field and is BLDN07 (not that this matters to you) and
the fields I'm passing are a starting Bin Location (&START) and an
Ending Bin Location (&END).

For example, I am wanting to run Bin Labels for locations E02 - E10.

If I have the QRYSLT defined as:

QRYSLT('BLDN07 *GE *BCAT &START)

It takes that fine. When I go to add a *AND BLDN07 *LE &END) it goes
nuts...

What am I missing ? I seem to remember using the " in these strings...

TIA !!

Chuck
