Re: edit a *QRYDFN query outside of WRKQRY interface?

What aspect of a query are you trying to change?  Because you may be able 
to do a 
RUNQRY QRY(MYLIB/MYQRY) RCDSLT(*YES)
or some such thing.

Both options 2 to change, and 5 to view, call program QQRYLIB/QQUDC.  And 
judging by some tests I suspect it parses together some stuff into 1 
parameter.  Perhaps in the format '2MYLIB     MYQRY     ' but I can't 
figure it out.  The format of the first option could be anything.  But 
maybe it passes altogether different.  I keep getting MCH0602.

If I use more than one parameter I get CPD0172.

(Posted to both Midrange-L & MI400)

Please, someone tell me that there's a way to bring up the "Define the 
Query" without having to
call the WRKQRY command and having to select one from the Work with 
Queries display!

Like, to be able to use option 2=Change from WRKOBJPDM on a *QRYDFN object 
and just be able to
jump to the "Define the Query" screen.  I would be HAPPY to consider an 
unsupported
command/program/interface/whatever.  (I'm on v5r2.)  I am tired of being 
forced to use this
kludge.

Surely, there must be a program to call.  The call stack changes to 
include QQUDC in library
QQRYLIB once a query is selected from the list and "Define the Query" 
screen is displayed.  Tried
calling it, but it requires parameters.  Is there a way to determine 
parameter attributes from a
program object?

If it matters, we use security level 30.  I would be willing to consider 
creating a shell program
to be able to run a system-state program, if necessary.

Anyone who can respond positively to this simple request (?) has my vote 
for iSeries hero of the
year.

Easily annoyed today,
- Dan
