Hi Bernd!

This is a job for REXX! REXX allows you to intersperse SQL and CL commands very easily. Here's an article I wrote a while back:

Betreff: Running SQL statement from CLP or CLLE

Hello,

I'm not sure whether this is the right forum to ask the following
question but I try.

I have a CLP in which I want to get information from a file.

As the file is quite big I do not want to get the info from it by RCVF
command because it could take a lot of time to get the information back.

MYFILE1 is a keyed file with MYFIELD1,.2,.3,.4 as unique key.

Of course I could call a RPG program from the CLP to get the requested
info returned by a parameter, but why not getting it by a single
"SELECT" statement?

The point is, that I want to do it like this: "SELECT MYFIELDx FROM
MYLIB/MYFILE1 WHERE MYFIELD1 = &PARM1 AND MYFIELD2 = &PARM2 AND MYFIELD3
= &PARM3 AND MYFIELD4 = &PARM4 ".

I haven't found any info or examples yet.
Maybe one of you know how to do it best or has another brilliant idea.

Thanx in advance

Bernd
