Alan,
You can also cast the column as a varchar() with a known length. The issue is that the pointer needs to be resolved into a data type that STRSQL can digest and there are limits with the size you can get away with.
Example:
SELECT
Cast(XMLROW(PCAT as "Catalogie_code", PPRICE as "Price", PSUFFX as "Suffix", PSKUNO as "Product_Nbr") as varchar(2500)) AS XML_ROW FROM hbmofa.pricep

STRSQL is not enhanced to display any enhancements since release V5R3.
You need to execute your SQL Statement with either Client Access - i Navigator - Run SQL Scripts or ACS (Access Client Solutions) - Run SQL Scripts.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Hi everyone
Before I forget - we are on v7r1
Things are relatively quiet at the moment, so I am trying to take advantage of that to learn new things - well - new to me anyway So I am looking into XML I have a physical file that I attempted the following SQL on
SELECT
XMLROW(PCAT as "Catalogie_code", PPRICE as "Price", PSUFFX as "Suffix", PSKUNO as "Product_Nbr")AS XML_ROW FROM hbmofa.pricep
But what is displayed back is nothing but a list containing the same word repeated over and over again That word is
*POINTER
I tried to google this - but found nothing What am I doing wrong
On the same note - if anyone knows of any web pages that they can recommend for XML on the AS/400 - it would be appreciated
