Works:

JOIN
BASEL_BSL_BCS_EXTRACT_ACCT_F.BMO_RESP_NODE_CD IN
BASEL_BSL_BCS_EXTRACT_ACCT_F TO ALL
BASEL_BSL_REPTG_RESP_F.RESP_NODE IN
BASEL_BSL_REPTG_RESP_F AS J1
END

Doesn't work:

JOIN
BASEL_BSL_BCS_EXTRACT_ACCT_F_OLD.BMO_RESP_NODE_CD IN
BASEL_BSL_BCS_EXTRACT_ACCT_F_OLD TO ALL
BASEL_BSL_REPTG_RESP_F.RESP_NODE IN
BASEL_BSL_REPTG_RESP_F AS J1
END

I get:
 (FOC009) INCOMPLETE REQUEST STATEMENT
 (FOC009) INCOMPLETE REQUEST STATEMENT


This is in 5.3.3. Anyone have long table names in joins in v7?

What's dumb is that we have no trouble generating the meta-data with this name, but we can't use it in a join!

I do not know the boundaries, but since I started in the former century with computers we only could use the 8 character file names. I still try to do that.

Never mind!

It works. I've figured out that it has to do with another deficiency - FOCUS INDEX field names cannot be more than 12 characters so I had a COMPUTE of the INDEX field name but the name was already in the JOIN structure.
