RE: DB2 OLAP functions

I was under the impression that OLAP is a chargable feature, not yet part of
DB2/400.  Ah, here it is....

Subject: DB2 OLAP functions


Hi,
 
I am trying to use the Rownum() over()  OLAP function but without much
success. My query is 

"select  field1, rownum() over(order by field1)  as rownum from
<library>.<fileName> where field1 like 'A%' and rownum < 10" 

I expect it to fetch me the first 10 records where field1 is like 'A%'
...but i get a SQL0104 Token ( was not valid. Valid tokens: , FROM INTO.
Cause . . . . . :   A syntax error was detected at token (.  Token ( is not
a valid token. 

What am I doing wrong ?

Do i need any special libraries to use these functions ?

Lastly forgive me if this is not the right forum, in which case can anyone
guide me to the right one.

TIA
Narsi
