hello
when i want to retrieve records from a file with certain criteria is there a preferred way  rather than using open qry file with selects... perhaps using cpyf to a file in qtemp and using increl to select records..... as a novice are there particular performance issues of either way   this relates to a  particular task where i was asked to  use  query400 (using this file and another file for the customer name ) to output  a printer file depending on the user entering date and customer or just date..... or would doing this in a rpg pgm reading the file have been better
