Within basic code, I would preference equates over variables for quotes& other

protection against fatfingeritus!
equ SQ to "'",
DQ to '"',
SL to '/',
BS to '\',
EOL to SQ:BS:'n':SQ

- Use variables for delimiters rather than embedded escapes.
It's more readable.
- There's no shame in writing to the OS and then executing. In
fact it can be very valuable to capture output and errors when
you execute

I also like to break my execute stmts out in short sections so
individual criteria can be commented out easily.
ECMD = \SELECT ORDER \
ECMD:= \WITH CUST.NUM = "\:CN:\" \
ECMD:= \AND WITH REQ.DATE GE.... (you get the idea)
