Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Deployment:
Startup Command and Parameter Reference

Version 6 Query (-v6q)

Use Version 6 Query (-v6q) to direct the OpenEdge server to use only a single index when resolving FOR EACH statements.

Operating system and syntax	UNIX Windows	-v6q
Use with	Maximum value	Minimum value	Single-user default	Multi-user default
Client Session	–	–	–	–

If you do not use this parameter, the server might use more than one index. Using more than one index is more efficient, but might change the order in which records are returned.

The -v6q parameter also causes cursor repositioning with FOR EACH statements, as in Version 6.
