Re: BIG Query Question

Sorry for replying so late.
You want to force-save a query, basically going into the query, changing nothing, and saving it. 

The easiest way I can think to do this is:
1. Get a list of queries. WRKOBJ *ALL/*ALL *QRYDFN to an outfile should work. 
2. Read the list processed by 1.
3. Write a program using Albert York's (IIRC) TNAPI program. It will be basically "real-time" execution because you "sign on" to the system and perform the work. The key sequence is something like WRKQRY LIB/QRYDFN, 2 (change), F3 (exit), Y 3 (save, do not run).
If you have more than a handful of queries this should pay for itself pretty quickly; even faster if you do frequent upgrades and need to re-save all the query definitions. 

HTH,

Hi Folks,
Our main application vendor is installing new update this weekend and files 
are changing.
We have a TON of queries that reference these files and if a file they use 
had changed, the query will bomb of course.
So is there any way to force the save of a query without going into it and 
doing that ?



Thanks !



Chuck
