I have a CREATE TABLE in a CLLE program that queries SYSCOLUMNS forcan in RPG.
one record (never more than one record, could be zero) and I need the
value from one field.
I tried DCLF SYSCOLUMNS and did an override to the file created by
CREATE TABLE, but upon doing a RCVF, I got CPF428A (Open failed
because "The format for file TMPSYSCOLS contains one or more large
object fields and the open request did not indicate that large object
fields could be processed by the user of the open."
I did specify AlwGraphic(*Yes) on the DCLF because it wouldn't compile
without it. But I see no option on DCLF or RCVF to process or ignore
"large object fields".
So, I am changing the query in the aforementioned CREATE TABLE to
select the one field I need. Now the table has the field, but since
it is created on the fly, I have nothing at compile time for a DCLF,
and I'd really like to avoid creating a permanent file for this. It
would just be freaking useful to be able to do a SELECT INTO in CL like we
Don't know if the "late Friday after a long week brain fry" is
affecting my memory, but is there a way to do this without creating a
permanent file needed to compile the program?
FWIW: We're on v7r1 with the latest TRs.
