Finally, there is a Pocket Developer's Guide for native AS/400 and IBM i 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 IBM i 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.
