You can try to use the function Timestamp to convert given date into timestamp format.
TIMESTAMP (START_DATE, START_TIME)
for ex: TIMESTAMP('2007-09-28',' ')
the output will be timestamp format as 2007-09-28-00.00.00.000000 |

Hello Murmohk,
I tried TIMESTAMP_ISO function but i guess we might have previous version of DB2 installed, i am getting the below error:
DSNT408I SQLCODE = -440, ERROR: NO FUNCTION BY THE NAME TIMESTAMP_ISO HAVING COMPATIBLE ARGUMENTS WAS FOUND IN THE CURRENT PATH
below is the SQL i am using
SELECT * FROM TABLE
WHERE UPDATE_TIMESTAMP >
TIMESTAMP_ISO('2007-09-9');
Do you have any idea about this ?

i tried your solution it is giving me below error:
SELECT * FROM TABLE
WHERE UPDATE_TIMESTAMP >
TIMESTAMP('2007-09-18','-00.00.00.000000');
DSNT408I SQLCODE = -180, ERROR: THE DATE, TIME, OR TIMESTAMP VALUE *N IS INVALID
Could you please share the SQL with me which you executed? |

You could use
| Code: |
where update_timestamp > '2007-09-18-
00.00.00.000000' |
or the slightly less efficient
| Code: |
| where date(update_timestamp) > '2007-09-18' |
