Hum, didn't know you couldn't use an OVRDBF prior to the query; never tried it, though. I do use OVRPRTF's prior to RUNQRY just so I don't have to change the query.

Query/400 is nice, I like it and still use it a lot. Grinds me, though, that it has to hardcode the library name in there. Even takes *LIBL, figures out which library currently works and puts that library name in there, replacing *LIBL. Hate that. I know IBM is sunsetting it, but you suppose a DCR has any chance on stopping that behavior?

One workaround that is often suggested is to use Query Management instead. Granted, if you don't have STRSQL you don't get the prompter of STRQM. But you can still build QM Queries and "compile" them without it by using CRTQMQRY. Here, you can use *LIBL.
