Depending on the configuration of the SYSPRINT specification, BTEQ either displays the results on the user terminal or writes them to the specified file:

.LOGON fml, 
*** Logon successfully completed.
*** Total elapsed time was 3 seconds.
   
SELECT * FROM department;
*** Query completed. 5 rows found. 4 columns returned.
*** Total elapsed time was 3 seconds.
   
DeptNo   DeptName      Loc  MgrNo
------   ------------  ---  -----
   500   Engineering   ATL  10012
   700   Marketing     NYC  10021
   300   Exec Office   NYC  10018
   600   Manufacturing CHI  10007
   100   Admin         NYC  10011
   
.LOGOFF
*** You are now logged off from the DBC.
   
*** Encountered EOF on RUN file. Returning to stdin.
For short jobs, it might be advantageous to execute a run file interactively and display the results on a terminal screen. For longer jobs, it might be better for BTEQ to write the results to a SYSPRINT file. In the latter cases, it is necessary to define a SYSPRINT file as a valid ddname using a z/OS DD statement before executing the RUN command.
