You have to force it most of the time, so you'd put in DFW-DOH and DOH-OSL separately but have your departure date the same date as arrival (or less than 24 hours), that usually works in the OW tool.

It tends to throw errors before ticketing if you do that with certain airlines, but many of them will work, and you should at least be able to get availability that way if nothing else. But QR most definitely goes by married segment logic, and in the tool that will break a married segment. If there is no availability on the married segment then you still can't book it, you need Expertflyer to check that. (Enter DFW-OSL, with connection in DOH), you need D on that, it doesn't matter if DFW-DOH and DOH-OSL have it separately. If there's no married segment availability then you need over 24 hours in DOH to break it.
Yes. I do have a current RTW ticket that I just changed the last leg (to be taken in March) to be HKG DOH OSL.

But now I am looking at starting new RTW ticket next fall and may want OSL DOH DFW as the first leg. So all the answers have been helpful. If I don't force routing, the Oneworld tool still throws out no business class available on the first flight if it is OSL DFW but is ok if the first flight is HEL DFW or OSL LON. But with the information provided, I have been able to work around enough for my research.

Thanks.
