Oh! This is what I needed to do!.. I had to type cast it as char('literal').
Thank you all so much! Sudha

Sudha, one more thought comes to mind. Are you passing literals in your tests? For example, function excepts a short and you are passing '33' in. System will use a default of 'INTEGER' data type and hence you will have your function mismatch and message that "fn" could not be found. For character it will assume VARCHAR for literals.
Bottom line is, either define your function as VARCHAR or typecast the literal with CHAR('mycharinput').
Ideal fix is to create several stored procedures with all these varying data inputs and have them all point to the same UDF. Then you don't have to worry about passing in literals or not.
Best way to check what you have defined as data type for input parms is to query the SYSFUNCS system table.
