<h1 class="topictitle1">View the implementation of your queries with Visual Explain</h1>
<div><p>You can use the <strong>Visual Explain</strong> tool with iSeries™ Navigator
to create a query graph that graphically displays the implementation of an
SQL statement. You can use this tool to see information about both static
and dynamic SQL statements. Visual Explain supports the following types of
SQL statements: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE.</p>
<div class="section"><p>Queries are displayed using a graph with a series of icons that
represent different operations that occur during implementation. This graph
is displayed in the main window. In the lower portion of the pane, the SQL
statement that the graph is based on is displayed. If Visual explain is started
from Run SQL Scripts, you can view the debug messages issued by the optimizer
by clicking the <span class="uicontrol">Optimizer messages</span> tab. The Query attributes
are displayed in the right pane.</p>
<p>Visual Explain can be used to graphically
display the implementations of queries stored in the detailed SQL performance
monitor. However, it does not work with tables resulting from the memory-resident
monitor.</p>

There are two ways to invoke the Visual Explain tool. The first,
and most common, is through iSeries Navigator. The second is through the Visual
