Can anyone help? I have an RPG pgm that allows the user to select up to 3 sort fields for their data of 8 possible choices. I had thought the best way (and easiest to maintain) would be to use parameters for the KEYFLD that would just populate the names of the fields that define the sort. When the program runs, the OPNQRYF returns no records. Here is an example of what the statements look like in the CL pgm. OVRDBF FILE(SA0025WK) SHARE(*YES) IF COND((&OPT1 *NE '1') *AND (&OPT2 *NE '1') + *AND (&OPT3 *NE '1')) THEN(OPNQRYF + FILE((SA0025WK)) KEYFLD((&SFLD1) (&SFLD2) + (&SFLD3))) IF COND(&OPT1 *EQ '1') THEN(OPNQRYF + FILE((SA0025WK)) KEYFLD((&SFLD1 *DESCEND) + (&SFLD2) (&SFLD3))) When that didn't work, I created an RPG program (after seeing some suggestions to others problems) that would create the entire OPNQRYF and execute that statement. Once again, I didn't get any records when the following RPG program tried to read the file. When I debug the RPG pgm, the OPNQRYF statement looks perfect but still has problems. Is there something I am missing? Has anyone done something like this before? Here is the pgm that creates the OPNQRYF in RPG: D Length S 15P 5 D Command s 100 * d cmd1 S 33 * *************************************************************** c eval cmd1 = 'OPNQRYF FILE((SA0025WK)) KEYFLD((' c eval command = %trim(cmd1) + fld1 * c if opt1 = '1' c eval command = %trim(command) + ' *DESCEND' c endif * c if opt2 = ' ' c eval command = %trim(command) + '))' c else c eval command = %trim(command) + ') (' + fld2 c if opt2 = '1' c eval command = %trim(command) + ' *DESCEND' c endif c endif * c if opt3 = ' ' c if opt2 <> ' ' c eval command = %trim(command) + '))' c endif c else c eval command = %trim(command) + ') (' + fld3 c if opt3 = '1' c eval command = %trim(command) + ' *DESCEND' c endif c eval command = %trim(command) + '))' c endif * C Eval Length = %Size(Command) C Call 'QCMDEXC' 55 C Parm Command C Parm Length * c move *on *inlr c return *************************************************************** c *InzSr begsr * *********** c *entry plist c parm opt1 1 c parm opt2 1 c parm opt3 1 c parm fld1 6 c parm fld2 6 c parm fld3 6 * * c endsr Thanks for any advise that anyone has!
