Hi all
I'm looking for an example to replace characters less than Blank (with
blank)  ; i found this example at
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7573321/db2-iseries-sql-clean-up-cr-lf-t
abs-etc :
 
UPDATE <file> 
SET <field> = REPLACE(REPLACE(<field>, x'0D', ' '), x'25', ' ')
WHERE   LOCATE(x'25', <field>) > 0 
    OR  LOCATE(x'0D', <field>) > 0 
 
But i receive this error : Message: [SQL0171] Invalid LOCATE function
argument 1. Cause  . . . : The specified data type, length, or value of
LOCATE function argument 1 is invalid. 
 
Can some help me ?
