Answer Posted / swetha p rao
If the particular field value is demo , then you can do
onething to avoid reading the file unnecesarily
1. Declare a temporary file in user open mode and specify
as external mbr in F spec.
2. In CPYF there is an option to include records (INCREL )
based on selection, just copy all the records where the
field value is 'demo' in a temporary file with a create
file option. (using QCMDEXC)
3.Now the temporary file will have only demo records.Open
the file and read the records.
(or)
Using SQLRPGLE, write a query to select the records which
has field value 'demo'
Correct me if iam wrong
