Mikael,

I say that regardless of whether you traditional RPG or SQL you may 
benefit from creating the proper logical file or the right combination of 
views and indexes.

Some benefit may be gained by not having a single view, and instead 
controlling your chaining with control breaks.  However I feel that the 
proper views will definitely simplify programming and tremendously ease 
the users when they use Query.  And this will help regardless of whether 
or not you use traditional RPG or SQL.  The beauty of the SQL is that it 
is easier to sort on the fly, on keys from different files.  The only way 
to do that with RPG is either SQL, or OPNQRYF.
