Prompted query

Prompted Query prompts you step by step to build a query. To start Prompted Query, specify LANGUAGE=PROMPTED on a SET PROFILE or RESET QUERY command.

When you begin working with a new prompted query, QMF displays a dialog panel on the right side of the screen to guide you through creating a query. As you work with the dialog panels, the prompted query is built in the echo area on the left side of the screen.

For detailed scenarios of the process of creating queries with Prompted Query, see Using QMF. Online help is also available.
