RE: Need help with SQL SET statement

Thanks to all.

Following SQL statement works for me.

UPDATE MYLIB/MYFILE SET myFLD = concat(substr(myFLD,1,5) ,
'0000') where substr(mdzipc,6,7) =' '

For SQL try:

UPDATE MYLIB/MFFILE
SET myfld = substr(myFLD,1,5) + '0000' + substr(myfld,10,3)
where substr(myFLD,6,4) =' '

I would have answered, but this is easily the tenth time this question
has been asked.
