Are you wanting to code SQL instead of FOCUS? You can. There's a technique called SQL Passthru allows you to code a SQL request hold the output then use FOCUS to format the report. Check you manual, do a search here or on tech support for SQL Passthru. If you don't find anything let me know and I'll post an example.

I'm not a system admin person, but what kind of SQL files. WebFOCUS has the capability of 'generating' the MFD's for you. Don't have the specifics in my head.

What I am trying to do, in Dev Studio, is call a master file from the Resource Layout tool in a dynamic list box. I am familiar with creating a passthru query in a report:
SET SQLENGINE = SQLORA SQL SQLORA SELECT SOMETHING FROM SOMETHING; TABLE FILE SQLOUT PRINT * ON TABLE HOLD AS AFILE END Then styling
But how is it coded for a master file? I've searched the board and user guides but, I haven't found anything on point. Thanks again,
Jeff DevStudio, 5.2.6 Please be kind....I'm new at this!
