<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5dfu38.htm">System/38-compatible data file utility (DFU/38)</a></strong><br />
DFU/38 data entry applications can be created and used with DDM to work with remote files in the same manner as with local files.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5qryutil.htm">System/38-compatible query utility (Query/38)</a></strong><br />
The <span class="keyword">System/38</span>-compatible
query utility (Query/38) can be used with DDM to create and use interactive
or batch query applications.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5nqueryx.htm">Non-iSeries or non-System/38 Query/38 example</a></strong><br />
This example shows how to create a local file and use it to define
the data that is to be queried in a non-<span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> or
non-<span class="keyword">System/38</span> remote file.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5q38out.htm">Query/38 output considerations for DDM</a></strong><br />
Query/38 output to an existing non-<span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> or
a non-<span class="keyword">System/38</span> target file
is possible, but only under specific circumstances.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5q38command.htm">Query/38 command considerations for DDM</a></strong><br />
All the Query/38 commands can be used in applications that access local files or DDM files. And, wherever a local database file name can be specified on any of the Query/38 command parameters, a DDM file can also be specified, as long as any other limitations are met.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5optmize.htm">Query/38 optimization for DDM</a></strong><br />
Query/38 has an optimization function, but because it causes <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> database query to be used,
the feature cannot be used when the query is performed against a remote file
that is not on an <span class="keyword">iSeries™ server</span> or
a <span class="keyword">System/38</span>.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rbae5q38apps.htm">Existing Query/38 application considerations for DDM</a></strong><br />
You should keep these considerations in mind for existing Query/38 applications.</li>
