Subject: Running SQL commands from CL (or elsewhere)


One of my guys just pointed this out to me, thought it might be of
interest to the group...
 
W/in QShell there's a db2 command. The command runs any sql statement
you pass it. Since you can call QSH and pass it a command to run, you
can effectively run SQL statements from w/in CL by executing a QSH
cmd('db2 "sql command"')
 
This is great when you want to do quick updates and inserts from w/in a
CL.
