actually, you'll need a bigger variable than 256.

Bob,

do yourself a favor and move the assembly of your qryslt outside of
the opnqryf command.  then you can run it in debug or dump it at the
error and see what your problem is.  - like this:

QSYS/OPNQRYF FILE((DOR400/GLTRAN)) QRYSLT(&QSLT) +

when the error happens, variable &QSLT will have the full select
clause evaluated the way OPNQRYF sees it.
