This might be worth an RFE request - I think the info might be in a table called QADBXREF, but we don't generally have authority to it - the SQL* and SYS* tables are often views, actually, over those QADB* files.

Trouble is, SQL-the-standard- knows nothing about formats, nor about members and RRNs and the like that are part of the implementation on IBM i - SQL language really doesn't care about low-level implementation, so long as some layer in between converts the physical part into relational structures and operations.

Whew! Time to go back to bed after that!

Cheers

Does anyone know where I can find the record format using SQL? I know I can
do DSPFD to *OUTFILE and select from it but I'd rather do it the easy way,
assuming it exists somewhere in a table already.
