[WDSCI-L] iSeries Navigator and Rational


I used iSeries Navigator to produce the SQL for a DDS defined file.
I used copy and paste to put the generated SQL statements into a
member in my QSQLSRC file using Rational.

It appears that iSeries Navigator is adding some control character
at the beginning of each line of the generated SQL statements, which
causes cursor issues when editing the member in Rational. The issue
is that the cursor on the line does not seem to follow the physical
cursor on the screen. When I position the screen cursor on the CHAR(
keyword and press Backspace, CHAR( stays as is, but the field name
starts to lose characters.

Does anyone know if there is a setting in iSeries Navigator or
Rational that can be changed to not have the special character be
added (in Navigator), or recognized (in Rational)? Does anyone know
if there a PTF or an APAR that may fix this issue?

Thank you,

Doug
