No it's because you misspelled coalesce.

Hello

Below is my sql

UPDATE Afile A SET A.Netamt = (SELECT COALSCE(B.Net, A.Netamt)

FROM Bfile B
WHERE A.date1 = B.date1)

I get below error
COALSCE in *LIBL type *N not found.


A.Netamt is defined as 15 2 numeric

B.Net is defined as var char(15)

Is Sql failing due to different attribute s?
Thanks


p.s: I believe I posted my query in wrong forum, re sending to rpg-list
this time. Sorry if you get to see my post more than once.
