Book Description: Finally, there is a Pocket Developer's Guide for native AS/400 and iSeries database development. Yes, it is in big pocket guide form and it is tutorial in nature. You'll be pleased with all the valuable examples. You won't want to put down this comprehensive guide to DB2/400 when you get your hands on it.
As you may know, there typically is no DB Administrator position in AS/400 shops. The database job is up to you - the AS/400 and iSeries Application Developer. Though rich in content, IBM's reference manuals are not built to teach you. They are for reference. This pocket guide is different. It is your teaching/learning vehicle to the native database. It is your new tool to help you solve programming problems more efficiently with database coding - rather than have to work harder building program code.
This guide has an example for these database functions: Creating Physical files with a field reference file Performing simple and complex DDS selects and omits Unions Multi-format non-join logical merges Simple joins Multiple file joins Much, much more!
