Try a DML-only statement, instead of the DDL CREATE TABLE. That should work.

I seem to recall in some old release(s) whereby a DDL statement did not honor an override for a select-statement. But IIRC, that same issue was /corrected/ so that the override was honored.

However when I tried the equivalent to the above on v5r3, I get the same -204. Perhaps my memory of no SQL0204 for the files on the FROM clause of the SELECT on a DDL SQL CREATE TABLE is incorrect. I was not successful in finding any doc about OVRDBF and DDL or Overrides and DDL when searching InfoCenter... but surely such a notation is there, if indeed the error condition is correct.
