Is there a way we can use to insert data to a specific member of a file, other than UPDDTA?

If this isn’t about SQL accessing members, you should open a new question. In that question, you should give a lot more details because there are way too many ways to answer this.

Ohhh .. except upddta
What’s wrong with Tom’s answer.

SQL-ALIAS?
SQL Insert?

Maybe you should describe your issues.

UPDDTA press F4
fields are:
Data base file . . . . .
Library . . . . . . .
Member . . . . . . . . .

Hi, Is there a way we can use to insert data to a specific member of a file, other than UPDDTA?

Via SQL (see the above discussion).

Via a program (RPG, COBOL, &c.).

Via a command (CPYF).

That’s all that I can think of right off.

Another idea…
At the SQL statement command prompt just press F4.
It will prompt you through the basic functions and automatiaclly build the correct syntax for you. Used it many times. works like a charm…
