AS400

Below keyword will let you display the Title of the window WDWTITLE((*TEXT &WTITLE) (*COLOR WHT) *LEFT) Will display variable WTITLE as Window tile on the left.

Current Server will give the server name of the as400 in which the query runs select current server from sysibm/sysdummy1 

Below query will return the records that are having non numeric value in Field1 coumn. select * from Tbl1 where   translate(Trim(FIELD1), '         X',   '1234567890 ') <> ' '            translate(Trim(FIELD1), '         X',   ' 1234567890 ') Trim will remove trailing and leading spaces. Translate will translate FIELD1 values of 1, 2, 3, 4, ....0 to ' ' as mentioned (10 blanks one for each number, translation happens character by character) and the ' ' will be translated to X. Hence if a record has FIELD1 has numeric value all the numbers will be converted to blanks and ' ' inbetween will be converted to X. hence if there is a record that is non-blank which means it has non-numeric value which the translate couldn't convert Translate in update: Field1 = 1O5719374 update TBL1  set FIELD1 = translate(FIELD1, ' ','O')  where                                    FIELD2 = 15145         

We can create a table in AS400 using the DB2 create command which will be saved as PF file in AS400 with the same name if the name is <= 10 character because as400 object name is limited to 10 character So when we create a table with name more than 10 character, system will allow you to create the table and even let you access the table using STRSQL or any other external application which use DB2 query. But the PF will not be saved in same name as it is more than 10 character. instead it will be saved as something like 'TBL_D00001' if you created a table as 'TBL_DIV_TYPE' which is 12 character long. But the table can be accessed in program using EXEC sql with the name 'TBL_DIV_TYPE' and file can be declared as ' ' TBL_D00001' other db2 application can use the original name. This relation between the DB2 table name and the AS400 file name is maintained or identified in SYSTABLES file DB2 name will be TABLE_NAME and as400 file name will
