After running a test procedure, I found the results of the program comparing the test results with the previous test very difficult to read. The output file being compared contains various dates in different formats. My modification changed nearly all these dates among other things, so I ended up having to read a very large spool file as all the test cases were affected.
I tried select fld1, fld2, etc from testfile union select fld1, fld2, etc from savedtestfile, ignoring the different date fields. The test cases having 2 lines in this select were those I wanted.
As the file in the select has a lot of zones, the sql wasn't easy to code. I had to select all fields, then find those I didn't want, delete them from the statement and copy the first half of the statement to the second half.
Eg, select fld1, fld2, ....fld100, from testfile
delete fld3, fld74, etc from statement.
Could I acheive this any easier?
Thanks
