Format the SQL statement under TSO/ISPF

Db2 Query Monitor has 2 interfaces, TSO/ISPF and Consolidation and Analysis Engine(CAE). Under the CAE, also known as the Web Client, the SQL statement being displayed is formatted. However, this is not the case for TSO. Here’s an example:

DECLARE C_TRIG3 CURSOR

WITH HOLD FOR SELECT T4 . *

FROM SYSTRIGGERS T4 , SYSPACKDEP T5 , SYSTRIGGERS T1 , SYSPACKDEP T2 , SESSION . ADBGEN T3

WHERE T1 . NAME = T2 . DNAME AND T1 . SCHEMA = T2 . DCOLLID AND ( T1 . SEQNO = 1 OR T1 . SEQNO = 0 ) AND T2 . DLOCATION =

' ' AND T2 . BQUALIFIER = T3 . CREATOR AND T2 . BNAME = T3 . NAME AND T2 . BTYPE = 'T' AND ( T3 . TYPE = 'TB'

OR T3 . TYPE = : H ) AND T1 . NAME = T5 . DNAME AND T1 . SCHEMA = T5 . DCOLLID AND ( T4 . SEQNO = 1 OR T4 . SEQNO = 0 ) AND

T5 . DLOCATION = ' ' AND T5 . DTYPE = 'T' AND T5 . BQUALIFIER = T4 . TBOWNER AND T5 . BNAME = T4 . TBNAME AND

T5 . BTYPE = 'T' ORDER BY CREATEDTS , SCHEMA , NAME

There is a Db2 stored procedure that could be called to format the SQL statement (ADB2FMP):
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2admintool/13.1?topic=apis-adb2fmp-stored-procedure
Today, I might cut and paste the query into another tool, such as QMF for Workstation, to format the query. Small queries are not bad. But when you have an SQL statement the spans multiple pages, an unformatted query gets difficult to try and understand what it’s doing.
When the SQL statement is EXP (exported) from Db2 Query Monitor, also write the query in the formatted option.

    Agreed this is cumbersome/painful at times especially when working with larger queries and trying to get their format up to speed after being exported
