RE: Trigger pgm - SQL errors -- MAPICS-L

Konrad & Malcolm, Thanks for your input. Don't want to beat a dead horse here. 
One more question. Malcolm. Your suggestion about strsql reminded me of 
something else... On the customer that I am trying to do this. I am not able to 
run the strslq command. Also I am not 100% sure about this but if I do a   GO 
CMDSQL ... I only have a couple of menu options. Could something not have been 
ordered on this box? Just installed beginning of the year. Missing a licensed 
product (DB2 Query Mgr and SQL DevKit for AS/400)
Thanks again for input

Pete,

I would agree with Konrad that it would be a good idea to do a bit more 
investigation, although there is a good case for an os400 bug. *Read= is
a fairly new trigger program option, and a quick check of the ibm w ebsite 
produced the following APAR whereby a decimal data error in Quer= y
produced the same error you are seeing (the error was incorrectly gen erated).



Another way to test your problem would be to use the STRSQL command, th en type 
in the command SELECT * FROM GELMAS and press Enter. If SQL i= s
causing your error, you should see it crop up.

As to how to report an APAR, I have not had to do so, but it looks as t hough 
you will need a customer number of a customer with a valid servic= e
contract in order to submit one. Ibm should be able to tell you how= to
go about it. No doubt the first thing they will want to know is i= f you
have all the latest fixes installed.

Good luck,
Malcolm
