I like Mark's suggestion the best (custom stored procedure).

That said, you should be able to use QCMDEXC stored procedure to execute any
i5/OS command. If your ADO connection persists between calls, you could run
DSPFD to QTEMP and then query it as you'd normally do.

Hi, Tim:

Put the DSPFD command into a stored procedure on i5/OS and invoke it via
ODBC via the SQL CALL command. Then run the query and return the results
set.
