SQL Table with ROW CHANGE TIMESTAMP



Just got back from the WMCPA conference and I'm using today to apply some of the learning that occurred earlier this week.

One thing I learned about was being able to have my SQL table automatically set the last change timestamp field w/o me doing it.
Example: ChgDate TIMESTAMP FOR EACH ROW ON UPDATE AS ROW CHANGE TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,

I added some records via DBU and saw that this worked great.

Unfortunately this seems to be de-simplifying the embedded SQL in my program.
I had Insert into BillAgentP Values(:ds_Insert);
Where ds_Insert is a Qualified DS defined like the file. But now that doesn't work b/c it doesn't like that I'm updating ChgDate. Is my only recourse to list out all the fields except for ChgDate?

I'm at IBM i 7.1

Thanks,
Kurt
