A FETCH, SELECT, CALL, SET, or VALUES INTO cannot be performed because the data type of host variable &2 is not compatible with the data type of the corresponding list item.

Is there some other sort of declaration I need internal to the trigger?

Documentation for ENCRYPT_RC2 says:

Data Type of the First Argument Data Type of the Result
BINARY or VARBINARY VARBINARY
CHAR, VARCHAR, GRAPHIC, or VARGRAPHIC VARCHAR FOR BIT DATA
BLOB, CLOB, or DBCLOB BLOB

Thus, in your case, the output from ENCRYPT_RC2 is a VARCHAR therefore, because the SQL trigger gets the field definition from the file, you must either declare the correct data type in the file or cast the result to the desired type.

CREATE TABLE MXP02(FLD01 CHAR (32 ) for bit data)

CREATE TABLE MXP02(FLD01 VARCHAR(32 ) for bit data)

or (untested):

create trigger insert_mxp02
before insert on mxp02
referencing new row as n

for each row
begin
set n.fld01= CAST(encrypt_rc2(n.fld01,'eftimios') as CHAR);
end

Simon Coulter.
