As far as I can tell from the documentation, I am unable to exclude from a
View definition just one field from the table on which the view is
created. I.e.:

create view testlib/testtrv001
as select a.* EXCLUDING FIELD123 from testtrg001 a

"EXCLUDING FIELD123" is my pseudocode to indicate that I want all of the
fields in testtrg001 *except* FIELD123 included in the view definition.

I know I can just list all 423 fields (less FIELD123) from the testtrg001
table in the select, but taking a poker in the eye seems preferable.

I'd use the API or Navigator to extract the DDL. That'll give me a list
of column names which I can paste into a CREATE VIEW script - omitting
the one that ought not be there.
