Now, I'm trying to figure out what could have caused everything to go haywire. I did attempt to run the RUNSQLSTM and forgot to use the "*NONE" parameter which apparently defaults to *CHG. I didn't set ERRLVL. Could that have done something?
"A commitment-control level is specified on the RUNSQLSTM command. If a commitment-control level other than *NONE is specified, the SQL statements are run under commitment control. If all of the statements successfully execute, a COMMIT is done at the completion of the SQL statement processor. Otherwise, a ROLLBACK is done. A statement is considered successful if its return code severity is less than or equal to the value specified on the ERRLVL parameter of the RUNSQLSTM command."

Buck,
I just tried your QMQRY suggestion. Wow. Works.
I think I found the utility you mentioned in the FAQ - article by you?
Thanks SO much for your help - everyone.

In fact, I cannot use any of the SQL statements I used to run from a menu I created a year or two ago. I thought that I had botched the update one that I reuse, but that's apparently not the case since an insert one I have set up will not work, now, either. I haven't used that one in quite some time.
As a further diagnostic aid, maybe you can try to run the same SQL
statements through iSeries Navigator? Or maybe make a QMQRY out of one
and try that?
CRTSRCPF QQMQRYSRC RCDLEN(92)
STRSEU and put your SQL statement in a member
CRTQMQRY
STRQMQRY
Is QMQRY works, look in the FAQ for an example of a utility that lets
one run any SQL statement from the command line. It uses QMQRY's
substitution variable capability...
