If you go DIY, the sql QSH command can be used without manually creating a QTEMP table then CPYTOIMPF.

Faisal, you can do most of this by going to a temporary output table, and then using CPYTOIMPF. At 7.1, the command lets you get the column names and specify the output sequence. It has always let you specify the separator.
I've written something to do what you ask--go from SQL directly to a delimited file, but I wouldn't have bothered back then if CPYTOIMPF then did everything it does now.

I need a simple and bulletproof method to create SQL reports on IFS.
Solutions like sql2xls are nice but, seem to be too overloaded.
I have opened a RFE = 117776 for a simple solution to enhance
"SQL Select" with an IFS output possibility.
See example below.
select CustNr, CutName
into outfile '\home\spool\cust.slk'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
from custMast
where Stat = 'IL';
Please vote if you like it.
