Frank,

As others have pointed out, you need to include single quotes in your
query string. I'll just add that one trick I like is to define a field
having a value of single quote, e.g.:

        DCL   &SQ  *CHAR   1   VALUE(X'7D')

Then you can construct your string like this:

. . . . *CAT ' *AND C1SCAC *EQ ' *CAT &SQ *CAT &SCAC *CAT &SQ . . . .

(Personally, I find this more readable and easier to change or debug than
"'")
