Bill,
Thank you very much. I do not think it is a good idea to use direct interface
to DB2. I do not want to be DB2 database administrator. I had some not very
good expirience with DB2-based IBM MERVA application in the past (similar to
SWIFT). As far as I understatnd, IBM does not advise to work with DB2 directly
in TSM as well becaose of very high risk. In my opinion, DB2 in TSM 6.1 is one
of the main problems. We were planning to implement 6.1.2 in production mode,
but project was posponed after testing (at least up to more stable release).
I have tried to find something more simple to format SQL query. No result is a
result as well.
Grigori

Grigori,
I assume the sql*plus feature you use is the break statement which
by default does outlines on break columns.
Besides submitting sql and retrieving results sets, Sql*plus includes
a lot of report writer functions which are not strictly SQL.
So I don't know any way to do outlining with just sql.
In version 6 you can make the db2 databases visible to other tools
using jdbc or odbc. See the wiki for directions. I use a free tool -
DB visualizer
(http://www.minq.se/products/dbvis/download/index.jsp)
to examine tables to attempt to understand what is going on. All the
views on the tsm db are there. I haven't looked for a tool which does
outlining but I am sure there is one.

I am not very cool in SQL and I need help.
I have query like "select distict a,b from c group by a,b"
Response on this SQL query in TSM Server is:
A1 B1
A1 B2
A2 B3
A2 B4
A2 B5
I would like to have:
A1 B1
B2
A2 B3
B4
B5
I know exactly it is possible in Oracle SQL*Plus.
Is it possible in TSM Server 5.5.3?
Is it possible in TSM Server 6.1.2 (DB2)?
What is the way, if possible?
