Call Level Interface (CLI) for OS/400

[Nimal Perera <nimal.perera@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone, Has anyone got CLI (Call Level Interface) expertise? If so,
please advice the following.

I have an application on the AS/400 that uses the CLI interface to talk
to DB2/400. The OS/400 version is V4R3M0.  The application that uses CLI
is running in the background (batch) as a server job.

For example, let's say the user that runs this server jobs is COMM. And
I have a library called COMM also. When I try to use the SQLDescribe API
in order to describe the characteristics of a certian database file, it
always looks for the database requested database in the COMM library.
This is the problem. Why should it always look into COMM library? Even I
qualify the database name with COMM.Database, still it searches the COMM
library. Is there a way we could tell CLI to use the qualified database
name??? Please advice.

I have already looked at the CLI Faqs from IBM in the following URL,

Thanks
Nimal
