I have a file with fields: ID, field1, field2. ID is the key and is unique.
I have a SQL script to read a view and insert records into this file. ID is
a numeric field so I tried to use the following to auto generate the next
ID number.
INSERT into TARGET_FILE
(ID, FIELD1, FIELD2)
(Select (Select Max(ID) + 1 from TARGET_FILE), FLD1, FLD2 from SOURCE_FILE)
The problem is it builds the ( Select Max(ID) + 1 from TARGET_FILE) upfront
and so the value is the same for each record in the source_file.
Are there suggestions on how to achieve this?
I want to avoid using a RPG program to get this to work.
I am not able to define the PF as a table so the field will remain a
numeric field.
TIA, Darryl Freinkel
