Re: DDL for timestamp column.

Untested but I believe if you use the %FIELDS() function that would
suffice vs using views


Thanks,

John,

Raul has a good point here. In RPG, when you do a WRITE it outputs all the
record's columns to the table. In this case (AFAIK), the DEFAULT value has
no effect (hence the suggestion for using a view)..

Regards,
Luis

Thanks Raul good to know,

This table will only get written to, so not a problem.

The timestamp with default will be set for write when is not in the
list of fields.? If you want to write from RPG you can create a view
without the timestamp.
