RE: How can I retrieve theinformation about a Query from a CL?

I am uncertain as to whether this will provide the specific info you
require, but it may point you in the right direction.

If you use RTVQMQRY and output to file, you will be able to access the query
definition. I use a CL PGM which references a file listing all the queries I
want to reference (DSPOBJD to Outfile) and then read through this file using
the query name each time with RTVQMQRY. This will create a new member in a
source file (which you need to create first) for each query definition. I
then call an RPG Pgm to test each line of the member. The Rpg is set to look
for file names in a certain position.

I hope that this is of some use.
