Thanks for your reply Rob
Joblog icon in Run SQL scripts?
Can you expand on this?

If it continues to fail then I would use the joblog icon in Run SQL scripts.
Perhaps you have a variable type mismatch or some such thing on the insert.

Forget using the dummy file and use the variables directly.
This is a working run sql scripts session:

CREATE or REPLACE VARIABLE rob.HIRADAS400FILENAMESHPD CHARACTER (10);
SET rob.HIRADAS400FILENAMESHPD = 'HRSHIPPEDD';
values rob.HIRADAS400FILENAMESHPD;
create table rob.HRCTRLFP (
testcolOne char(10)
);
insert into rob.hrctrlfp (
testcolOne)
values (
rob.HIRADAS400FILENAMESHPD
);
select * from rob.hrctrlfp;
