Hi ,
I need to update a column in the table whose Hex equivalent should be equal to 01.
| Quote: |
UPDATE Table A
SET Col1 = (SUBSTR(Col1,11,1),X'01')
WHERE A= 999
and B= 99
and c = 'ST';COMMIT;;;; |
when ran the above query in SPUFI it gives me the below error
| Quote: |
SQLCODE = -104, ERROR: ILLEGAL SYMBOL ",". SOME SYMBOLS THAT MIGHT
BE LEGAL ARE: MICROSECONDS MICROSECOND SECONDS SECOND MINUTES MINUTE
HOURS
|
even I tried with the
| Quote: |
UPDATE Table A
SET Col1 = (SUBSTR(Col1,11,1),HEX'01')
WHERE A= 999
and B= 99
and c = 'ST';COMMIT;;; |
Is there any way that i directly update the value to a HEX equivalent |

Hex Function -
The HEX function returns a hexadecimal representation of a value. |

Hi,
your requirement is not clear.
What exactly you want to do?
you want to update COL1 when it's Hex equivalent should be equal to 01 or you want to update COL1 to hex equivalent of 01
Can you please elaborate on requirement |

Technokrat,
Observations:
1.You said you wanted to updated hex equivalnet of 01 but it is SUBSTR(Col1,11,1),X'01') ( Still I am clueless what is needed here)
2.Col1 = (SUBSTR(Col1,11,1),X'01') guess it should be Col1 = SUBSTR(Col1,11,1)||X'01'
3.In your next reply please use code tags and show us sample input data and sample output data considering X'01' is a '.'
4.Failing reply for the above observations you may not get a reply |

No x'01' is not a '.' it is a non-displayable character that often is displayed as a '.' but it is definitely not a '.' which in EBCDIC is a hex'4b' or in ASCII is a x'2e'. |
