RE: SQL Equivalent of CRTLF

Edit Codes as well as date formats are not supported with SQL! In a table are only data!
You may create views where you format your data in some kind.

If you want a keyed access with native I/O you need to create an index!
BTW SQL Indexes can not be specified in an SQL Statement, but they can
be used in composition with native I/O like any keyed DDS described
logical file.
You may read the following article:
SQL indexes and native I/O – no contradiction

https://developer.ibm.com/technologies/systems/articles/i-sql-indexs-a
nd-nat
ive-io/
<https://developer.ibm.com/technologies/systems/articles/i-sql-indexs-
and-native-io/>

... and SQL is much more powerful and much easier than DDS ... and DDS
is stabilized and outdated
