RE: SQL error after upgrade to V7

See the memo to users. There is a note there about this SQL error message.
It's been a year, but that customer had to rework a boatload of SQL
statements due to taking shortcuts in the JOIN clauses.

Subject: SQL error after upgrade to V7

A Client just upgraded to V7 over the weekend. (Test partition)

We recreated the Host server SQL Package QGPL/QZDAPKG but that did not
clear the problem and this SQL is beyond my ability to debug. Any clue
as to what might be wrong? It works well at V5R4.

SELECT
DMNAME,DMSOURCE,SRDESC,DMREV,DMDESC,DMSTATUS,STSDESC,DMORDER,DMOWNER,WGDESC,
DMASGN,DMCHECK,
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM COWOC WHERE OCNAME = DMNAME) NOTE
FROM COWDOC,COWSR,COWSTS,COWWG,HDMCATS A
LEFT OUTER JOIN HDMCATS B ON (B.CAT = 'FILEICONS' AND B.IDX = 'FILEEXT' AND
B.IDXVAL = A.FILEEXT AND B.STS IN('A','K'))
LEFT OUTER JOIN COWOA ALERT1 ON (DMOA1 = ALERT1.OACODE)
LEFT OUTER JOIN COWOA ALERT2 ON (DMOA2 = ALERT2.OACODE)
LEFT OUTER JOIN COWOA ALERT3 ON (DMOA3 = ALERT3.OACODE)
LEFT OUTER JOIN COWOA ALERT4 ON (DMOA4 = ALERT4.OACODE)
LEFT OUTER JOIN COWOA ALERT5 ON (DMOA5 = ALERT5.OACODE)
WHERE DMSOURCE = SRSOURCE
AND DMSTATUS = STSCODE
AND DMOWNER = WGUSER
AND DMNAME = A.DOCID
AND DMSTATUS = 'N'
AND A.CAT = 'CUSTPO';


Error is:
SQL State: 42972
Vendor Code: -338
Message: [SQL0338] JOIN predicate or MERGE ON clause not valid.

It is highlighting the "ON (DMOA1 = ALERT1.OACODE)" portion of the
statement.
