I don't think you need to worry about the length; just the type.  But if the
length does prove a problem, by all means go ahead and substring the long
one to match the short length.  Try it, you have little to lose.  I'm pretty
sure there are SQL links in the FAQ, but if my memory is faulty, I'm sure
you can Google a bunch of examples using UNION.  That's one good thing about
SQL: you can probably find help from any platform that will generally apply
to DB2 UDB for iSeries.
