Re: QMQRY: Does this query tool support long field names (DDS Alias names) on iseries?

[Charles Wilt <charles.wilt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, mine come up with them automatically if they are there...

                            Select And Sequence Fields

Type a sequence number (0-9999) for the name of each field to appear in the
  report, press Enter.


Seq   Field                              Seq   Field
      OLSDTA.EDI832ITM-- ALL                     A.PACKAGE
        A.EDI_PARTNER_ID                         A.SIZE
        A.PRODUCT_ID_QUALIFER_1                  A.UNIT
        A.PRODUCT_ID_1                           A.PRICE_ID_CODE_1


Oh wait..try hitting F19=Display field names

It must remember your last choice...as mine says
F19=Display system field names

Which switches back to the short names.
