Never mind. Adding Extname(..:*Output) will not work.
I keep forgetting the SQL Precompiler does not seem to understand the *INPUT or *OUTPUT options of a data structure.

Looks like you need to define your DS with Extname(..:*OUTPUT) By adding OUTPUT you tell the system to not include the generated always column in the data structure.

Subject: INSERTing datastructure into table with GENERATED ALWAYS column.
Hi All,
I have a table with a unique_id column defined as GENERATED ALWAYS.
CREATE TABLE HJWMS/T_IMPORT_ITEM_MASTER FOR SYSTEM NAME WIITM (
UNIQUE_ID INTEGER GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY (
START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1
NO MINVALUE NO MAXVALUE
NO CYCLE NO ORDER
NO CACHE ) ,
IMPORT_ID VARCHAR(60) ALLOCATE(10) CCSID 37 NOT NULL ,
IMPORT_STATUS FOR COLUMN IMP_STATUS VARCHAR(10) ALLOCATE(10) CCSID
37 NOT NULL ,
...
CONSTRAINT HJWMS/Q_HJWMS_WIITM_UNIQUE_ID_00001 PRIMARY KEY( UNIQUE_ID ) )
RCDFMT WIITM ;
The data structure is defined as
D wiitm_Ds...
D e ds extname(wiitm)
D qualified inz
My insert statement is
Exec sql
INSERT INTO wiitm VALUES :wiitm_Ds;
When I try to compile the program I get the errors
SQL0117: Statement contains wrong number of values.
SQL0798: Position 1 Value cannot be specified for GENERATED ALWAYS column UNIQUE_ID.
Without listing all the columns individually on the insert statement is there a way to insert the data structure?
Thanks,
Rob
