Why do my SQL results show pointer? [email protected] (Simon Hutchinson)

​At least one a month I get a question that is something like this:

My SQL results do not look like yours, mine have the word pointer in them. Why?

This gives you away as someone who is still using the old Start SQL command, STRSQL, interface in your 5250 emulator session, rather than Access Client Solutions’ Run SQL Scripts. I am pretty sure that the vast majority of us are using ACS for our 5250 “green screen” sessions, so why are you still using STRSQL when Run SQL Scripts is there too?

2023 IBM i (AS400, iSeries. System i) Survey

​ALL400s and several of its sponsors have created this survey.  We’d like to find out more about the three main areas in the ecosystem – companies who use the platform, people who work on it, and vendors who support it. 
Some sponsors have agreed to send it to their customers, and ALL400s will send it to thousands of people in its own network.
Most of the questions are multiple choice and they’re all optional.  If you want to finish it later click ‘Done’ at the bottom of it.  (It means ‘done for now’).  You can go back to it on the same device and continue any time, clicking ‘Done’ when you want to save the results.
