Brad,
 
  Try doing this from a CL prgram:
  
 ===> DSPFD FILE(YOURLIB/YOURFILE) TYPE(*MBRLIST)
OUTPUT(*OUTFILE) OUTFILE(QTEMP/MEMBERS) OUTMBR(*FIRST
*REPLACE)                                             
   
  Then perform an OPNQRY or SQL across QTEMP/MEMBERS. 

Search against the field &MLNAME(MEMBER NAME).  If you
need sample code please let me know.
