Re: SQL cursor inputting default dates from a DDS file

That's a good question, and I'll add an SQL statement to make sure, but I think the answer to your question is Yes.

not sure if this is the answer, but in your connection configuration do you have *ISO as date format?

Subject: SQL cursor inputting default dates from a DDS file

Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen,

I'm trying to do a quick RPG query with an SQL cursor, but I need to be able to input three dates, any one of which has '0001-01-01' in the filtered subset I will try to fetch. Ran my statement in the separate SQL scripting window (from RDi) but it threw the error that there is a conversion error. I"m sure the above zero-one date is the culprit.

I'm sure I solved this once, years back, but if anybody has the quick answer to as to how I can cast those dates, I'd sure appreciate it and would send good vibes your way!

(I wouldn't even mind if our global SQL guru piped in her thoughts! You know who you are!)
