Hi Justin,
Afaik, that's correct. I think an SQL view is the normal way to have a
derived column.
If you absolutely, positively, must have the derived column in the
table, maybe you could use FIELDPROC. Although it's normally for
encrypting and decrypting a column's value, it appears you could use it
to generate a value, although since it is done with a CALL to a program,
not a procedure in a service program, I would imagine the performance is
not great.

I need to a derived/generated column to an existing table using a formula.
The way I read the Db2 Ref, generated columns can only be one of a few
system-controlled values. Am I reading that wrong?
TIA
