AW: SQL DDL -- MIDRANGE-L

No! It worked fine for what I wanted.
I wanted to preserve the data, after I changed my reference file and rerun the CREATE OR REPLACE Table statement.

You actually need one more clause there if you want to use WITH DATA

ON REPLACE DELETE ROWS

With Release 7.2 TR2 we got the CREATE OR REPLACE feature.

Example:
Create or Replace Table YourSchema/YourTable
(ColumnId,
Column_Customer_No For CustNo,
Column_Name_Long_1 For Name1,
Column_Name_Long_2 For Name2,
Column_Name_Long_3 For Name3,,
Contact,
Country,
Street,
PostBox,
ZipCode,
City)
as (Select Id, CustNo, Name, Name, Name, Name,
Country, Street, ZipCode, ZipCode, City
From Schema/YourRefFile)
INCLUDING Identity Column attributes
With No Data;;

If your reference file get modified or, just rerun the CREATE or
REPLACE Table Statement.
If you want to add and additional column, just put it in the SQL
Script and rerun the CREATE OR REPLACE table statement.

Hello SQL-ians

When considering defining files/tables using SQL instead of DDS I was
asked whether SQL has the DDS REF File feature - REF(LIB/FILE)

Is there?

TIA
Gad
