RE: SQL source

If you want to get the Creation Statement for ANY database object (table, view, index, trigger, user defined function ....), either open ACS Schemas, Open your schema, position on you database object, right click an then GENERATE SQL or use the SQL Stored Procedure GENERATE_SQL.

DSPFD is an (old DDS) and not SQL technique.

Subject: SQL source

I learned something today. If you create a logical file using CREATE VIEW, then DSPFD shows the SQL statement used to create that view. If, though, you create a logical using CREATE INDEX, DSPFD does *not* show the statement. It's a little quirk that caught me because I couldn't find the source for an index.
