   What is the reason for avoiding the use of a source member as the 
output device?

   I am not aware of any API that was made available to provide 
access to the QM query statement by any other means than the output 
to a source physical file member [via EXPORT QUERY statement or 
RTVQMQRY CL command] or output to a spool file [via PRINT QUERY 
statement, using the QPQXOBJPF printer file].

   The system-domain x/1931 object [space object type *QMQRY] could 
be resolved for an address to the object and set a pointer to the 
space, and with some reverse engineering, access the statement; e.g. 
as RTVQRYF does.  A DMPOBJ of a QM query object shows the hex data 
in the MI space, to know what would be the data addressed by the 
space pointer.
