RE: Integer type on SQL Server vs. AS400 Database

["Elvis Budimlic" <ebudimlic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am not sure why RUNQRY is having problems with it, but you are correct as
to how big an integer is.
Try viewing it with interactive SQL:
STRSQL
SELECT myIntField FROM myLib/myTable

Hopefully someone else will chime in as to why RUNQRY can't display it.

Subject: Integer type on SQL Server vs. AS400 Database

I created a DB on the ISeries to match a MS SQL Server database so that we
could create a DTS package to transfer data between the two systems.  The
problem is the SQL Server number in a integer field is 10 long but when we
transfer it to the AS/400 it drops the first position.  If you do a RUNQRY
on the file it replaces the integer value with ******. I thought an integer
was from -2147483648 to +2147483647.

Thanks..
