RE: Query Manager Prompting

["Draper, Dale" <dale.draper@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

IIRC If you search the archives, about a year ago or maybe a bit longer this
came up.

Anyway, I was able to find documentation that I could use, so you should
have no problem.

Here's the CL I use:
==========
 PGM

 STRQMQRY   QMQRY(SEXAXYZ/CREDITREL1) QMFORM(*QMQRY) +
              ALWQRYDFN(*YES)

 ENDPGM
================

In the Query definition itself select records looks like this (where field
HODOCO is the selectable field):

Field             Test   Value
HODOCO            EQ     :HODOCO

---------
If you  hit return from here you see a second screen:

-------------------
Type choices, press Enter.

  Qualifier type . . . .   1

  Query or file  . . . .   DUMMY
    Library  . . . . . .     SEXAXYZ

  For choice 2=File:
    File member  . . . .
 -----
Other Query definitions:

Output type is "1" display

--------------------------

And, strangely enough "DUMMY" does not exist as an object on my system.

I hope this helps.
