<h1 class="topictitle1">Use DBCS fields in the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command</h1>
<div><p>These topics discuss the use of double-byte character set (DBCS)
fields for these Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command functions: wildcard, concatenation,
and sort sequence functions. A table shows valid comparisons for DBCS fields
through the OPNQRYF command.</p>

<ul class="ullinks">
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbafodbcsqryw.htm">Use the wildcard function with DBCS fields</a></strong><br />
The wildcard (%WLDCRD) function with a double-byte character set (DBCS) field differs depending on whether the function is used with a bracketed-DBCS field or a DBCS-graphic field.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbafodbcsqryo.htm">Compare DBCS fields through the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command</a></strong><br />
When comparing two fields or constants, fixed-length fields can be compared to variable-length fields as long as the types are compatible.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbafoqryoc.htm">Use concatenation with DBCS fields through the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command</a></strong><br />
When using the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) concatenation function,
the <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> licensed program
assigns the resulting data type based on the data types of the fields being
concatenated. When double-byte character set (DBCS) fields are included in
a concatenation, the resulting data type is generally the same as concatenated
fields in a logical file, with some slight variations.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbafodbcsqryss.htm">Use sort sequence with DBCS</a></strong><br />
When a sort sequence is specified, no translation of the double-byte character set (DBCS) data is done. Only SBCS data in DBCS-either or DBCS-open fields is translated. UCS2 data is translated.</li>
