Always use Operations Navigator, Database, Schema, Right Mouse and select
New table to create tables.
This gives you a GUI interface to create the table. When you are finished,
you just do a right mouse on the table name and say generate SQL and it will
generate the SQL for you. You only need to clean it up. You never want to
code this stuff by hand. Way too much work.
Here is a script that I put into a source member. If you have V6R1 you can
save your script to the database. Before you need to cut and paste.
One gotcha. SQL will generate lines that are longer than 80 characters but
RUNSQLSTM will not read them. Anything that is longer than 80 characters has
to be fixed.
The headers are for my make tool.
A couple of things to note here.
1. Notice that the file name is created as the Short Name and then the
RENAME statements convert to the long name. This gives you the proper member
names and you still have the short names. If I am creating a table in SQL I
always give it a everything short and long names. SQL uses the long. RPG
programs use the short if doing file I/O.
Note that 99% of this code was generated by the Generate SQL. You just need
to change the CREATE TABLE name and add the renames. Everything else is
pretty well done.

Ok, how do you 'run' that then to actually create the table?
I am assuming you are using SQL type in PDM for documentation purposes
only.
It is not listed when you press help to see all the types.
Then when you want to do the equivalent of CHGPF to add or change a
column
in the table , you do an ALTER TABLE?

Subject: Re: Confused about DDL and DDS
Yes, DDL is "just" text. I use the "SQL" type in PDM (well, Aldon does
when
I create the member).
Here is an excerpt from a table DDL:
create table fsicapture (
capturedate for column capdate date not null with default,
isshipday decimal(1,0) not null with default,
...
budget decimal(12,2) not null with default,
primary key (capturedate)
)
rcdfmt fsicapturr
;
label on table fsicapture is 'Forecast sales inventory graph capture';
label on column fsicapture (
capturedate text is 'Capture date',
isshipday text is 'Is ship day 1=yes',
...
budget text is 'Sales budget for month'
);
label on column fsicapture (
capturedate is 'Capture Date',
isshipday is 'Shipping Day 1=Yes 0=No',
...
budget is 'Sales Budget'
);
alter table fsicapture
add constraint check_isshipday check(isshipday in (0,1))
;
HTH,

I have been searching through the archives and the web.
I want to create a data base file using DDL. Is DDL just a text file
created
with PDM with a CREATE statement in it? I did not see any examples
anywhere
except CREATE statements. I never saw the equivalent of DDS for the
CREATE
to look at.
I do not see a source type DDL in PDM.
