This is an excellent place to mention a technique someone showed us in
these lists - maybe Buck, maybe Tom Liotta.

Anyhow, if you want an apostrophe (single quote) then put in a
substitution variable such as &QT.

In your SELECT you would have A.TRFIDT <= &QT&NXTSAT&QT

In your SETVAR, have one that is SETVAR((QT '''') (NXTSAT &NXTSAT6A))

That assumes that TRFIDT is alpha.

Dan,

The value has to be in double quotes, like '''147019'''.
The outer quotes make it a character variable, the inner quotes are
passed with the value into the QMQRY query.

The actual value pass is ''147019''

I am attempting to pass a value to a QMQRY.

The query looks like this:

INSERT INTO IS2LIB/TEMPROB1(SELECT A.TRFBCH, A.TRFSTS, A.TRFTYP,
A.TRFFLC, A.TRFTLC, A.TRFIDT, A.TRFINS, A.TRFREF, B.INUMBR,
B.TRFREQ, B.TRFSHP, B.TRFREC, B.TRFALC FROM MM4R6LIB/TRFHDR A,
MM4R6LIB/TRFDTL B WHERE A.TRFBCH = B.TRFBCH AND B.TRFSTS = 'A'
AND A.TRFFLC IN(902, 904, 970, 971) AND A.TRFIDT >= 060601 AND
A.TRFIDT <= &NXTSAT AND A.TRFTLC <> 66 AND A.TRFTLC <> 68
ORDER BY A.TRFFLC, A.TRFTLC)

The CL program:

DCL VAR(&NXTSAT6A) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(6) VALUE('140719')
STRQMQRY DANRLIB/WOTRT01 SETVAR(NXTSAT &NXTSAT6A)

MM4R6LIB/TRFHDR field: TRFIDT ZONED 6 0

The error I get is:

140719 is not a valid Query Management variable.

Suggestions?

TIA,
Dan
