RE: Selecting a calculated date within a logical file.

There used to be a select function in the dds for select/omit.  That is 
what I am talking about.  Years ago we would create a logical file in a cl 
and pass it a parm to populate the select part of the dds.  I don't have 
access to how I did it but I can remember doing it. Margaret

Margaret,

I'm not sure I understand your solution.  There is no "select" parm on the 
CRTLF command.  He'd have to write a program that would generate DDS 
source, that would accept the parm you suggest, and insert it into the 
source, then run the CRTLF command over this generated source.  Rob's 
solution using OPNQRYF would work in concert with yours, since OPNQRYF 
allows the selection criteria to be specified in the command.  But, if 
Jonathan is seeking a view that persists beyond the life of the CL 
program, he couldn't use OPNQRYF.

If you are going to use CL to set up and run this job, there is another
way.  You can create the logical file in the cl and pass it a parm for the 
select part of the logical file,  and then delete the file when you get
done with it.
Thanks,  Margaret

[SYSTEM21]   Selecting a calculated date within a logical file.






Dear All,

Is it possible, and if so does anybody know how, to do a file selection on
a date field within a logical file.

What I am trying to achieve is to set-up a logical that will only pick-up
the previous days transactions.

TIA

Jon
