The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Your response was received with the good will in which you intended it.
It helped focus my attention, Steve. Thank you.
The follow-on has been a struggle for me. The first IBM i SQL reference
I found is a 1597 page PDF document. Probably full of useful
information but entirely unusable for me at least, for look ups and
searches. That started wider searches. One thing that became clear
very quickly is that there are lots of ways to do most things. Most
work, some don't, and some may work but lead down rabbit holes. There
is a lot of dated and old information, a lot of misleading commentary,
and a lot of platform and version specific choices.
It looks to me like SQL is powerful, flexible, and with a learning curve
as steep as a user wishes to make it.
In the end, midrange.com is the best go-to there is. The help here is
courteous, fluent, and responsive. It is appreciated.

Booth,
I would suggest that you browse through the IBM i SQL reference - it
will help enlighten you to what is available, and there are many
examples in the book.
