Re: View QMQry Source in RDP

There is one product I've used in the past--although I haven't used it in
years. It's called FROG. It's a free utility. A quick Internet search
found it at: www.innovativesys.net/?page_id=4

I think you have to launch it as an external editor. Like I said, I
haven't used it in years and I don't remember how well it worked, but I
was able to open and edit QM objects in a graphical PC editor.

Is there a way to work with QMQry source in RDP?

I would like to update some SQL and I was thinking it'd be nice if

I could do it in RDP. I know I can do it in RDP (or wherever) and
copy what I want into QMQry, but I'd like to be able to directly
modify the QMQry source from RDP.

To be clear, I think you are not talking about editing QQMQRYSRC; the
place the source is stored for the CRTQMQRY command; the resulting
object executed via STRQMQRY. RDp works fine for this although there is
no prompting available.

I think you are talking about STRQM, which doesn't seem to have a source
file associated with it. The 'source' seems embedded in the *QMQRY
object. Unless STRQM has a secret stash where it keeps the source, I
don't think any external editor is going to work with these.
