<div><p>Create and run queries using various methods, including SQL, the
|
||
|
|
OPNQRYF command, the <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> Create
|
||
|
|
Query API (QQQQRY), ODBC, and Query for <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span>. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>One of the most common tasks that you perform with your database is to
|
||
|
|
retrieve information. <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> servers
|
||
|
|
provide several methods to create and run queries and reports.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can use an SQL statement to retrieve information. This SQL statement
|
||
|
|
is called a <em>query</em>. The query searches the tables stored in your database
|
||
|
|
to find the answer to the question that you posed with your SQL statement.
|
||
|
|
The answer is expressed as a set of rows, which is referred to as the result
|
||
|
|
set. After a query has been run, you can also create a report to display the
|
||
|
|
data provided in your result set. For detailed information about creating
|
||
|
|
SQL statements, see the SQL programming topic.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In addition to using SQL, you can use other functions and products to create
|
||
|
|
and run queries and reports. See the following manuals for detailed information.</p>

<p>In addition, the <span class="keyword">iSeries Navigator</span> interface
|
||
|
|
provides SQL Assist, which can be used to create SQL statements. SQL Assist
|
||
|
|
helps you to build SQL Select, Insert, Update, and Delete statements. See
|
||
|
|
Build SQL statements with SQL Assist for more information.</p>
