All,
I have seen references here recently and in the past regarding using SQL to
read /Write files (tables) residing on the IFS, but can not find anything
in the IBM reference manuals.
I am working with systems on 7.2.

Can someone point me to the appropriate manual or link on how to do this?

I am very comfortable working with SQL and even the Unix/C procedures for
accessing the IFS in RPGLE.
