I need a count of *records that meet a certain criteria*. The INFDS won't get me that.

I did not think this could be done, but I just discovered you can use
SQL in RPG service programs!

It's a perfect fit as I happen to need a Count() of records in a file
that meet certain criteria.

This is a good day. So far.
