Periods in libraries were quite common on the S/36. It was a way to group

only thing that works is to be sure naming style *SYS

client has "."'s in the library name!

my.lib

In db2 sql, how do you specify the library name?

I've tried everything...

my.lib.myfile
my.lib.myfile
'my.lib'.myfile
'my.lib'/myfile
"my.lib".myfile
"my.lib"/myfile

with both naming styles *SYS and *SQL...
