RE: QMQRY runs interactively but not in batch

Hi Peter

I don't suppose the QMQRY definitions explicitly specify the library as
QTEMP do they ?

In my experience this may cause problems where the initial query specifies
*LIBL for the file to be created and the file ends up created in whatever
the *CURLIB is.

Subsequent queries expecting (and specifying) QTEMP as the files library
will fail.

Hope this helps
