DCL VAR(&MYENO) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(4)
OVRDBF FILE(EMPS) SHARE(*YES)
OPNQRYF FILE((TAMIL1/EMPS)) QRYSLT('ENAME *EQ
%WLDCRD("S *")')
READ: RCVF RCDFMT(EMPRCD)
MONMSG MSGID(CPF0864) EXEC(GOTO CMDLBL(END))
CHGVAR VAR(&MYENO) VALUE(&ENO)
SNDUSRMSG MSG(&MYENO)
SNDUSRMSG MSG(&ENAME)
SNDUSRMSG MSG(&EADD)
GOTO READ
END: CLOF OPNID(EMPS)
DLTOVR FILE(EMPS)
ENDPGM

Is this coding correct sir,the program gets compiled,and if
i call it it says query running but records are not
displayed.please help me out

Answer Posted / roshan


the %WLDCRD keyword is case sensitive,

Your are entering the 'S' with capital latter in %WLDCRD
keyword and records present in file are start with
samll 's', becouse of that records are not selected in open
query command.

Thanks
