<p>The Run Query (RUNQRY) command runs an existing query or a default query if only a file name is specified for this command. The query gets information from the system database and produces a report of that information. The report is created in either detailed or summary form. The definition of the query can be printed when output to a printer or database file is specified. The output is shown, printed, or stored in a database file. The command is used in three ways: to run an existing query (one that has already been created), to run an existing query with some of its values changed by values specified on this command, or to run a default query based only on the defaults and values specified in this command.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>To run an existing query without changing the file or files to query, use the QRY parameter (without the QRYFILE parameter) to specify the name of the query.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>To run a changed version of an existing query, use the QRY parameter and the appropriate parameters to change the definition as desired. The parameter values specified on this command override the corresponding values in the existing query definition, but only when the command is processing. For example, use the QRYFILE parameter to indicate a different file or list of files to use in the query.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>To query a file without a previously defined query definition, use the QRYFILE parameter to specify which file to query. Only one file name can be specified for a default query.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>If you specify both the QRY and QRYFILE parameters, the files specified in the QRYFILE parameter override the file names specified in the query. Therefore, if multiple files (and members) are defined in the query definition and you want to change one or two of them, specify *SAME for the file selections that do not change, and specify the values for the files to override.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><b>Notes:</b>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>When a changed version of an existing query is run, the changes specified on the RUNQRY command do <b>not</b> change any of the values in the query definition itself; they affect only the results of the report being run.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>If an existing query (identified on the QRY parameter) is used, *RUNOPT is the default value for any unspecified parameters; that is , the same value specified (or assumed) in the definition of the query is used as the default. If this is a default query, the default value is not *RUNOPT, but is the next predefined value listed in the syntax diagram.

|
</li>

|
|
OUTFORM(*SUMMARY) COPIES(4)
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This command runs the query QRY1 located in library LIBX. The report that is produced and printed contains summary records only. Four copies of the report are printed.

|
|
<p><b>Example 2: Running a Default Query</b>

RUNQRY QRYFILE((LIBX/FILE2 *FIRST))

|
|
RCDSLT(*YES) OUTFILE(LIB2/OUT1 MBR4 *NEWMBR)
|
|
</pre>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This command runs a default query and gets the data from the first member of file FILE2 located in library LIBX. Member MBR4 is created as a new member to file OUT1 in library LIB2. Member MBR4 contains the output from the default query. The record selection display is shown to allow you to specify which records from file FILE2 in library LIBX are written to new member MBR4 in file OUT1 in library LIB2. The output contains detail records only.
