Periods are also used in Unix environments, so if a collection (library)

brought over from another system and the database converted to DB2, (like

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

group

them for saves. S/36 way of "generic".

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...
