Hi Gad,
(resend as it appears you didn't receive it the 1st time)
According to V5R4 DDS for physical & logical files, DFT(*NULL).
Here is the syntax diagram:
DFT('value' | numeric-value | X'hexadecimal-value' | *NULL)

Subject: Null default value for SQL insert
Hello guys
Can you help with the following:
A long preface:
We use a Web based home grown system to upload many files to our i
machine
(V7R1)
using SQL Insert.
When Inserting a record to a file using SQL Insert with partial list of
fields (as in File having fields A, B, C and the insert is "Insert into
File (A,B) Values('1','2')"
the the remaining fields are populated with default values (field C in
the example above).
Numeric fields are populated with zeroes, Alphanumeric fields with
blanks Date fields with Current system date Time fields with Current
system time etc.
Default values for fields can be defiled using DDS DFT('xxx')
Now for the question:
How do you define a *Null default value* with the A/M DDS DFT ?
(and no, adding the missing fields to the Insert staement in no option)
Thanks
Gad
