Re: How can I get the DDL to display using ACS's interactive SQL?

@Sue Romano

What is the command to use for SYSCOLUMNS2_SESSION?

I tried it but it does not work. I think I need a schema in it but could
not find one.

This system is on v7.4 and almost up to date with PTF's.

Thanks
Darryl

That doesn't work for qtemp. OP was asking about qtemp. This is why the
cool method of the content assist (ctrl-space) also doesn't work.

Darryl,

What about consulting the table columns with SQL? For example:

select * from qsys2.syscolumns where table_name = 'MY_TABLE'
order by colno

HTH,

I often need to be able to display the definition(DDL) of a table
whilst
using the interactive SQL.

Example I am working with data in a table in QTEMP using SELECT. I then
need to see the DDL (fields and properties of the fields) but do not
know
how to do that.

The only way I can do it, is by using Schemas in ACS or iNav. However,
when
working with tables in QTEMP, this is not possible as Schemas starts a
new job and I need a command to see the makeup of a table.

Is there a way to do this like using a SELECT command?

TIA, Darryl Freinkel
