I am trying to retrieve column information for a file using SQL. The file
was created using DDS and has TEXT values as shown below. However, when the
below sql statement on a V7.1 machine, it returns garbage / unprintable
characters but it works on a V6.1 machine. Is the V7.1 machine missing a
PTF or something or what is different between V6.1 and V7.1?
==> Here is the DDS
R RTEST
FIELD1 10 TEXT('FIELD1')
==> Here is the SQL statement
SELECT SYSTEM_TABLE_NAME, SYSTEM_COLUMN_NAME, COLUMN_TEXT FROM SYSCOLUMNS
WHERE SYSTEM_TABLE_NAME = 'TESTPF'
==> Here are the results of the SQL on a V7.1 machine.
SYSTEM_TABLE_NAME SYSTEM_COLUMN_NAME COLUMN_TEXT
TESTPF FIELD1 ã ñ á < à
==> Here are the results of the SQL on a V6.1 machine.
SYSTEM_TABLE_NAME SYSTEM_COLUMN_NAME COLUMN_TEXT
TESTPF FIELD1 FIELD1
