I have the need to scan all files in a set of libraries, and delete all the records where the condition: CONOxx='BX' is met. Looked easy at first, a couple of dspobjd's and an embedded sql statement. Snag is the xx part - although this is usually part of the filename, there are exceptions. As far as i can tell, SQL won't let me use a wildcard in the field name. The only place where this number is always held correctly is the 4th and 5th digits of the file format. Any suggestions as to how i can retrieve this information? The only way i can think of doing it is to DMPSYSOBJ for each object, but as i am only a novice when it comes to programming i don't know how to program this.
