<div><p>There are two naming conventions that can be used in <span class="keyword">DB2<sup>®</sup> UDB for iSeries™</span> programming:
|
|
system (*SYS) and SQL (*SQL). </p>
|
|
<p>The naming convention used affects the method for qualifying
|
|
file and table names and the terms used on the interactive SQL displays. The
|
|
naming convention used is selected by a parameter on the SQL commands or,
|
|
for REXX, selected through the SET OPTION statement. See Qualification of
|
|
unqualified object names in the SQL Reference for more details.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">System naming (*SYS)</h4><p>In the system naming convention,
|
|
tables and other SQL objects in an SQL statement are qualified by schema name
|
|
in the form: </p>

<pre>schema/table</pre>
