O.k., that worked, but the logic behind the "fix", as you put it, escapes
me. I can understand that the two sources of the same column name in a
USING clause will have identical values, so it's not *necessary* to qualify
them. But why is it desirable that those columns should be removed from the
c.* reference? What did the "fix" actually fix?

WAF....(working as fixed) ;)

You've only asked for c.*

But the join columns aren't seen as part of C or D anymore...

This would fail
select c.su_ID1 from Test4Dupes JOIN Charges c
using (su_ID1, su_ID2, su_ID3, su_DoS);

You'll have to add the using columns explicity

select su_ID1, su_ID2, su_ID3, su_DoS, c.*
from Test4Dupes JOIN Charges c
using (su_ID1, su_ID2, su_ID3, su_DoS);

Going a little crazy here. Running the following query, all of the
columns
from Charges are shown EXCEPT for columns in the USING clause. Is this
expected behavior?

select c.* from Test4Dupes JOIN Charges c
using (su_ID1, su_ID2, su_ID3, su_DoS);

FWIW, v7r1 with somewhat recent PTF groups applied. Also, same behavior
in
STRSQL and ACS Run SQL Scripts.
