If you can run the SQL statement interactively you can take an F13 to change the options, and set the output option to a new file. I believe that you can also do a "CREATE TABLE AS (select statement)" -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dan Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2007 3:25 PM To: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Subject: SQL solution for copying subset of one file to another,based on a third's contents? I need to copy a subset of a huge customer file into a test version of the file. The customer file is uniquely keyed by company number (CONUM) and customer number (CUNUM). The subset is to be derived from a transaction file, which has the CONUM & CUNUM keys. Problem is that the transaction file will have multiple records for any customer record. Can SQL's INSERT somehow be used for this, or is this more easily solved by an RPG application? TIA, Dan
