Re: using STRSQL statement fails but works with Ops-Nav

[Vern Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe try this - RTVQMQRY of the QMQRY that works into a source member, 
then copy/paste that into STRSQL and see whether it works. If not, I'd say 
there's a bug. As you probably know, with your experience, you can't prompt 
this common-table expression stuff in iether STRSQL or STRQM, so they are 
kind of 'way behind.

Alternatively, although it seems you have the library list thing covered, 
maybe try debug in all three situations (you can turn on debug in the 
recent ODBC drivers, as I recall) and check secon-level for differences, 
maybe some freak thing is happening with what actual files are selected.
