RE: Select Into

Brian and Reeve,

Thank you both!

I guess I assumed since my RPG program defaults to *ISO that SQL does as well.

Works great now.
Greg

Do you have a,

SET OPTION DATFMT =*ISO

coded at the beginning of the RPGIV source? This /might/ help.

I have a database table that contains '0001-01-01' in some of the date fields. When the records are inserted into the file, they are inserted as values.

I have tried several ways of retrieving these "dates" into an RPG variable to no avail:

Select datefield into :rpgDate from MYFILE where...
Select char(datefield) into :rpgChar from MYFILE where...

In both cases I get an SQL State of 22007 and SQL0181 Value in Date, time or timestamp string not valid.
The resulting RPG field is not populated (although, when the rpg
variable is defined/initialized as a date it is '0001-01-01')

The date fields in the table are defined like:
SBM_DATE DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_DATE

If I run the same select statement from ACS Run SQL Scripts, I do not get an error.

Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong.

TIA
Greg
