Re: SQLRPGLE ... order by Timestamp descending

I think RPG reads the null value in a timestamp as 0001-01-01... but SQL
treats it different. If the field is "null capable" SQL will read /
update these records using "is null"

I have a file with a timestamp field which quite often has a value
0001-01-01.  I want to select all records in the file, in descending
order for that timestamp.

First issue:  Only records greater than 0001-01-01 are being returned.

Second issue: no records are returned if I use "order by :timestamp desc"
