I didn't notice that you were doing a subselect with the strsql query. Anyway the subquery isn't necessary. Just do this.
select mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnucmd, mnuonm, max(mltimstmp) from
pdatalib/menupf
join pdatalib/menulog on mnuprf = mlnuprf and
mnugrp = mlnugrp and
mnuopt = mlnuopt
where mnucmd like (:fmtScanVals)
Group by mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnucmd, mnuonm
order by mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt
for fetch only;

Subject: SQL - group by not working for me.
I have a query I can get to work in STRSQL, but not getting it
to compile in SQLRPGLE...
the premise of the query is to return the latest instance of a user
running a menu option. I have a menu file, and a menu log file.
for every menu file record I retrieve, I want to find the "Latest" time
the user ran that option...
I can't get my SQLRPGLE to accept the GROUP BY, or something else is
wrong!!!
here is my SQL that works in STRSQL:
select mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnucmd, mnuonm, max(mts) from
(select mnucmd, mnuprf, mnugrp,
mnuopt, mnuonm, mltimstmp as mts
from pdatalib/menupf
join pdatalib/menulog on mnuprf = mlnuprf and
mnugrp = mlnugrp and
mnuopt = mlnuopt
where mnucmd like ('%ORD500%')
order by mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt) as list1
group by mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnucmd, mnuonm
here is my RPG that won't compile...
each of the fields in my outer select have a "Column XXXXXX or
expression in SELECT list not valid" (SQL0122)
exec sql declare LOAD cursor for
select mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnucmd, mnuonm, max(mts) from
(select mnucmd, mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt, mnuonm, mltimstmp as mts
from pdatalib/menupf
join pdatalib/menulog on mnuprf = mlnuprf and
mnugrp = mlnugrp and
mnuopt = mlnuopt
where mnucmd like (:fmtScanVals)
order by mnuprf, mnugrp, mnuopt)
ROWS for fetch only;
Thanks...
