The most complete way to decipher a QryDfn is to DmpObj.  The resulting
printout is a template explaining the query definition.  On the left side of
the printout is the hex representation of the offsets to the different
areas.  For example:

X'0104' is the output option.  You would be looking for a value of '3' here.
X'002F' is the beginning offset to the files used.  Usually X'0220'.
X'017E' is the beginning offset to the output file specified.

The logic chains together nicely and it just requires a couple of examples
to figure out the template.
