Re: query question

Doug,

You have an AS/400.  You are never limited to just Query.

For example on a system with no SQL and no PDM:
crtpf qtemp/db rcdlen(80)
upddta qtemp/db
Select iclas,iid,count(*)
from iim
group by iclas,iid
having count(*)>1
crtsrcpf qtemp/dbsource
QSYS/CPYF FROMFILE(QTEMP/DB) TOFILE(QTEMP/DBSOURCE) FROMMBR(DB)
TOMBR(DBSOURCE) MBROPT(*ADD) FMTOPT(*CVTSRC)
CRTQMQRY QMQRY(QTEMP/DBSOURCE) SRCFILE(QTEMP/DBSOURCE)
STRQMQRY QMQRY(DBSOURCE)
Itm
Cls  ID     COUNT ( * )
---  --  --------------
75   IM             30
76   IM             97
...

Greetings,

I need to find out if records are being posted twice to an inventory
file-and query is all that I have to work with.
Is there a way to use query to select records from a file based on the fact
that the data in several fields is identical to the data in those fields in
another record when in fact that combination of fields should be unique in
the file?

Thanks,

Doug
