I was able to access that link, but then thought I'd try something different, so here's my odyssey. Online documentation link for V4R5, V4R4, V4R3, V4R2, V4R1, V3R2, Redbooks, Domino for AS/400, and more. http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/homeeng1.htm Clicked on V4R5, went to: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/v4r5eng.htm Clicked on category bookshelves for V4R5, went to: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/ct45eng.htm Selected Integrated Database and File Systems, went to: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/8eng45.htm Under the section Queries and Reports, saw the Query/400 Use link, which said it was in Information Center. This went to: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/v4r5/ic2924/info/rbaf9mst02_frm.htm There was nothing in the document telling you what version of Query/400 this applied to, except maybe the link. I find this document to be extremely limited. For example I searched for SELECT AND RECORDS AND QUERY/400 and none of the hits talked about the tests you can use. I guess that is what the online help is for. Note: I had to add the QUERY/400 or else you would get all sorts of unrelated help, like how to select records in logical file DDS. This is because it will search the entire Information Center and not just the Query/400 document. You can limit you search with checkboxes to certain areas (by using advanced search), but, DDS and a lot of other unrelated items are in the same section as Query/400. Even with the Query/400 I got 64 hits. I prefer the html versions of manuals much better. The information is a lot clearer, better laid out, easier to search and much more informative. So I continued my journey. I went to the V4R4 manuals as previously suggested and ended up at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/v4r4eng.htm Selected Category bookshelves for V4R4 and went to http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/ct44eng.htm Selected integrated database and file systems and went to http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/pubs/html/as400/online/8eng44.htm Found the Query/400 and discovered much to my joy that I had my selection of html or PDF. Selected HTML and got http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr/BOOKS/qb3agg00/CCONTENTS At the top you'll see: Title: Query/400 Use V4R1 If you are used to the paper manuals, this most resembles that. Of course you have great search capabilities and stuff added. This help? Rob Berendt ================== Remember the Cole!

What are IBM doing with these manuals these days ? Used to be easy, search the softcopy CD. Not these days; Search the Softcopy CD Search the Info centre CD, then search the supplemental manuals CD ! And no way to search all manuals. Thanks for all your replies.
