Yes. Ususally we call an RPG program to build the SQL string, since the
string handling ablitities are better in RPG than in net.data, but you can
do it wherever you would like. We just populate a variable (which we
usally call "SQL") with the SQL string, so it says something like "SELECT *
from FILEA where FIELD1 = 1 and FIELD 2 <> 3" and then call a function like
the following:
%{ -----------------------------------------------------
Query to find list of items
----------------------------------------------------- %}
%FUNCTION(DTW_SQL) Sales_Query (In SQL) {
$(SQL)
%report{
report stuff here
%}
%}

Can you give filter options on the screen and then adjust the SQL select
accordingly? By that I mean dynamically build the "where" clause on the
select statement based on the selections on the screen.
Thanks,

[WEB400] Net.Data and data filters
Please respond to
Web Enabling the
AS400 / iSeries
<web400@midrange.

Good morning all!
I have a file of 173,000 records that I want to display for the clients
and allow them to filter the data by the different columns involved. I
wanted to use Excel but we have the row limitation of the 65,536 rows so I
thought about a way to do it using the browser. Currently, I know that I
can easily use Net.Data to display this but I want to have data filters
like I will do in Excel. I also have the Net.Data subfile technique some
of you have shared with us but I still do not have an example of how to do
a data filter technique like in Excel. I guess I can use CGIDEV very
easily but I have not been fully exposed yet to it and I do not want to
code this in RPG.
Any EASY technique / way out to this?
TIA,
