That's right, it'll run the statement, but you can't prompt for it. STRSQL will execute any legal statement, but there are a number that cannot be prompted - same with STRQM.

If you're lookin' for a good time---call a stored procedure that returns a result set. How long is it before you sign off?

As far as other products go, command prompting is good - wish they'd follow through on SQL developments. Then there's the issue of the pre-compilers.

I thought it had support, you just couldn't prompt for it.  But, then
again, what IBM product has even the limited prompting capability that
STRSQL has?
