Re: Can you suggest how I can connect to another database in SQL reading the remote file and updating a local file

I have to assume that Dieter didn't read the 7.1 documentation that I copied in my other post - it clearly says that we CAN do exactly this.

I believe that what we cannot do is JOIN tables from 2 different systems - that is still a limitation and would require the federation stuff.

This is very cool stuff, IMHO.

Deiter,

So are you saying IBM and others are lying when they say you can do

INSERT INTO QTEMP/ITEM_MASTER
SELECT *
FROM MyRemoteSystem/DEV/ITEM_MASTER IM

where MyRemoteSystem is an entry from WRKRDBDIRE pointing to another IBM
i,
once you are at certain levels of the OS?

Or are you saying that we just didn't understand what the OP was asking?
