Hope this helps and if anyone else knows how to return sets of data
without stored procedures I'm all ears.

Use data queues and send "end of data set" messages so the queue knows when
it has received all entries. A similar approach would be to make data queue
records as long as possible and "chunk" multiple logical entries onto one
data queue record. Each data queue record would have to have a header area
where you would denote whether there were additional records needing to be
read.

Thoughts?

Eerily reminiscent of punched cards, but other than that I have nothing intelligent to add. If the 'gui' side is mostly System i programmers, then data queues and JT400 are probably the first thing that pops into their minds (result sets aren't 'native' I/O.) On the other hand, I suspect very few Java or .NET people would be more comfortable with data queues than ODBC/JDBC.
