I was trying to get the number of members in various source physical files.

So I whipped up a little Python script containing the following SQL:

select count(*) from qsys2.syspartitionstat
where table_schema = ? and table_name = ?

For some files, this works fine. For others, it (very quickly) returns
0, even though there are definitely members. This happens whether I'm
running from my PC or from PASE. The same SQL works fine in STRSQL for
any file I've tried.

If there is any pattern to it, it seems the files with a lot of
members (say, over a couple thousand) come back as empty over ODBC.
Files with a smaller number of members work fine with both ODBC and
STRSQL.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a limitation of the ODBC driver?
