Just in case it wasn't clear from Chuck's post, the SUBSTR function
works slightly differently than the SUBSTRING function; it's not just an
abbreviation of SUBSTRING. From the v5r3 documentation:
"A substring of expression is zero or more contiguous characters of
expression. If expression is a graphic string, a character is a DBCS,
UTF-16, or UCS-2 character. If expression is a character string and the
function is SUBSTRING, a character is a character that may consist of
one or more bytes. If expression is a character string and the function
is SUBSTR, a character is a byte.54 If expression is a binary string, a
character is a byte."
