something (api) I can use within a CL or RPG.
Thanks anyway.

If you do a STRSQL and do a SELECT * FROM long_table_name and hit F4, prompting 
for the field names will show the short table name.

SQL allows creating tables with names up to 128 long.
Anybody knows way to copy a long named file (longer than 10) with CPYF command?
I understand ISeries comes up with a 10 digit name (First five characters + 
00001), but I wasn't able to figure out, how to reference that name to the 
actual long SQL table name.
thanks in advance for any help.

Ali
