Re: IBM iACS SQL prompt never works

I think I found a very useful alternative in the Schema tool - it is available in the Tools menu of RSS. Open it to the list of libraries (schemas), then right-click on a schema name and click on the New item - you'll see all the kinds of SQL objects you can create, including tables - for each object type there is a window with tabs for the several clauses of each kind of CREATE. Those tabs are similar, to my thinking, to the steps you use in STRSQL.

Thanks for this Vern. I continue to treat Run SQL Scripts as a command line. Need to move my brain forward.

Now back to Content Assist - there are some kinds of statements that lend themselves more easily to this tooling.

I've found that content assist is cursor sensitive.
CREATE <cursor> <F4> gives me a different list than
<cursor> CREATE <F4>
