??? RPG doesn't have an access path? If you can SETLL and READE right away on a Logical file, you can get faster processing time when SQL "may" need to create a new access path. I've had RPG programs run faster than SQL and SQL programs that have run faster than RPG. The slower SQL programs are usually because the SQL couldn't find a suitable access path and created a new one on the fly.

AM Please respond to RPG programming on the AS400 / iSeries <rpg400-l@midrang e.com> Not really. When you consider that when RPG doesn't have an access path, it has to read every record. SQL _might_ have to do the same thing. But the advantage SQL has over RPG is that SQL can build a new access path on the fly from multiple existing access paths.
