It would be my guess that the opnqryf will do the job you ask. Are you doing this in a CL? A very useful thing I have done when getting messy results is this:

OVRDBF FILE(SomeFile) TOFILE(SomeFile) SHARE(*YES) OPNQRYF FILE((SomeFile)) QRYSLT(&SEL) + KEYFLD(INVDATE)


MONMSG MSGID(CPF4174) CPYFRMQRYF FROMOPNID(SomeFile) TOFILE(QTEMP/TestFile) +
                      MBROPT(*ADD) CRTFILE(*YES) /* testing only */

Then do a runqry on the CPYFRMQRYF. The data most likely will show where the error is ocurring.

HI I Have a file that is sorted by invoice number. The requirements for
the reprt are to list details by year. Yet the date is not part of the
key.
I tried an OPNQRYF using the date as the key, but this was ignored.

Did I do this wrong, or is there no way to do this w/out creating another
logical?

Thanks,
Steve
