In all honesty no I don't.  My situation is this.  I have had a 2 week course 
on as/400 operations and a 12 week couse in COBAL/400 and 12 weeks in RPG/400 
IV   and 1 year on the job here Problem is.. I'm working at a company with 
only RPG III so i'm pretty stuck with limited resources here.. I dont even 
think they have SQL/400 ,but they might cause i can access STRSQL and i 
beleave thats part of sql/400 if im not mistaken.  I think i may have a 
answer to my problem "if all else fails'  they rarely request all sections so 
I'm thinking of creating a rpg program that will build an temp extract file 
that will hold information to be reported on and have a logical key that for 
the name sorting process. that way i wont have to make a modification to the 
origanal base program. I guess a preprocessor of sorts.  The origanal program 
only takes about 5 seconds to run a normal request.. But i'm always willing 
to test out the sql option.  Just need a little background info on how to do 
so. 

Thanx,
Chris
