Hi,
In database I have rows like below.

990000
999154
999155
....

Due to a bug, instead of 990000 getting incremented, the value changed to 999154 and is getting incremented.

My requirement is to fetch the value that is less than 999154 and increment by 1. that is 999001, 999002, etc..

REPOSITION gives the latest row inserted 999155. I am looking for REPOSITION with WHERE clause syntax and examples.

i.e. FOCUS equivalent of the below DB2 query

SELECT ID from table where ID < 999000

Hi,

You might for one time fix the data by using query like

SELECT ID from table where ID >= 999000 AND ID < 999155

and then Modify your actual query

Also check this link for FOCUS documentation

I am still struggling to fix this.

REPOSITION SHIP_MEMO_ID ;
NEXT SHIP_MEMO_ID
WHERE SHIP_MEMO_ID LT '499999'

The above query is throwing FOC401 error. Can anyone help me with FOCUS equivalent of the below query.

SELECT SHIP_MEMO_ID FROM TABLE
WHERE SHIP_MEMO_ID < 499999

What does the Focus manual say about the error. It is a Focus error so the message is not in the IBM manuals and most people will not have access to the Focus manuals.
