<div><p>This example shows how to select records in a range of values using
the Open Query File (OPNQRYF) command.</p>
<div class="section"><div class="p">Assume that you have a <em>Date</em> field specified in the character
format YYMMDD and with the <span class="q">"."</span> separator, and you want to process all
records for 1988. You can specify: <pre>OVRDBF FILE(FILEA) SHARE(*YES)
OPNQRYF FILE(FILEA) QRYSLT('DATE *EQ %RANGE("88.01.01" +
"88.12.31") ')
CALL PGM(PGMC)
CLOF OPNID(FILEA)
DLTOVR FILE(FILEA)</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p">This example also works if the <em>DATE</em> field
has a date data type, the job default date format is YYMMDD, and the job default
date separator is the period (.). <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> For any character representation of
a date in one of the following formats, MMDDYY, DDMMYY, YYMMDD, or Julian,
the job default date format and separator must be the same to be recognized.</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p">If the ranges are variables defined as character data types and
the DATE field is defined as a character data type, specify the QRYSLT parameter
as follows: <pre>QRYSLT('DATE *EQ %RANGE("' *CAT &amp;LORNG *CAT '"' *BCAT '"' +
*CAT &amp;HIRNG *CAT '")')</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="section"><div class="p">However, if the DATE field is defined as a numeric data type,
specify the QRYSLT parameter as follows: <pre>QRYSLT('DATE *EQ %RANGE(' *CAT &amp;LORNG *BCAT &amp;HIRNG *CAT ')')</pre>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> *BCAT
can be used if the QRYSLT parameter is in a control language (CL) program,
but it is not allowed in an interactive command.</div>
