insert into orderDTL (rrn, field1, field2, ....) <----- List all
the fields here
select rrn(a) as rrn, 0, ' ', .... <----THESE ARE THE INITIAL
VALUES
from orderDTL a join orderHDR b on a.ORDER# = b.ORDER#
You may be able to use DEFAULT instead of all the 0 and '' values but
not sure.

Subject: SQL: insert records, but intialize most fields to blanks &
zeros
I need to capture the RRN of a record, and later come by and populate
remaining fields with current values.
insert into orderDTL (
select rrn(a) as rrn
from orderDTL a join orderHDR b on a.ORDER# = b.ORDER#
This fails because there are more fields in orderDTL file than just RRN.
How can I initialize the other fields to spaces & zeros?
Should I do a 2-step process and CREATE a new file followed by CPYF *MAP
*DROP?
