Has anyone else had this issue (we are on release 7.1):

I have a SQL script with a CREATE TABLE statement in it. There are two columns in the table (among others), both are DATE types, and one is right after the other.

I want to assign default values to both of these dates, so after the CREATE TABLE statement, I use two ALTER TABLE commands to set the default value.

When the two ALTER TABLE statements are one right after the other in the script, only the first one takes effect; the other one runs, but does not set the default value, nor is there an error on the SQL report. If I separate the ALTER TABLE statements by moving one to the end of the ALTER TABLE section in the SQL script, both work fine, and both date fields have their default value set. I know the syntax of both is correct, since when they are not contiguous, they both execute as desired.

Any ideas?

Thank you,

Doug
