      SUMMARY

      IQL is a joint product of Digital Equipment Corporation and AZREX, INC.

      IQL Version 3A is a maintenance  release  of  IQL  Version  3.   Several
      outstanding  bugs  are corrected in this release, and some new DBMS FIND
      record selection expressions are supported.

      IQL3A runs under release 3 and 3A of TOPS-20 and under release  6.03  or
      later of TOPS-10.  It has been tested in-house under 3A and 7.01.

      IQL3A has been compiled and tested with COBOL/LIBOL V12.  It  will  also
      work  with V12A, but will have to be recompiled.  See IQL3A.BWR for more
      details.  IQL3A also requires SORT V4 for TOPS-20 or SORT V3A or  4  for
      TOPS-10.  It is loaded with LINK V3A or higher.
