   I have created a sample table on a v5r2 iSeries and
used the LABEL ON statement to set the column header
(i.e. Column Label to Java's ResultSet object) to a
human readable string.  If I query the MetaData on the
iSeries from STRSQL the labels for each column appear
to be set correctly. 
   However, if I pull the table contents into a
ResultSet via the JT Open 4.6 AS400JDBCDriver and then
get the MetaData for the result set I still end up
with the COLUMN_NAME when I do
resultSetMetaData.getColumnLabel(colIndex).  The label
added via LABEL ON does not seem to be honored by the
JDBC Driver.  Has anyone run into this before, and if
so, is there a way to force the use of the column
header so it will be returned via the
ResultSetMetaData.getColumnLabel(colIndex) call?  I've
placed the table creation SQL statements and the code
used to connect and retrieve the table data below:

DROP TABLE sampleTable;

CREATE TABLE QGPL/sampleTable
(
   COLUMN1    char( 20) not null with default ,
   COLUMN2    char( 20) not null with default ,
   COLUMN3    char( 20) not null with default 
);

LABEL ON COLUMN sampleTable
(
   COLUMN1    is 'Column One'
   COLUMN2    is 'Column Two'
   COLUMN3    is 'Column Three'
);

I then connect to the iSeries and pull the data as
follows:

----------------------------------------------

DriverManager.registerDriver(new
com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver());

Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection
("jdbc:as400://" + system);

DatabaseMetaData dmd = connection.getMetaData();

Statement select = connection.createStatement();

ResultSet rs = select.executeQuery ("SELECT * FROM
QGPL" + dmd.getCatalogSeparator() + "sampleTable");

ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();

for(int j=1; j<=rsmd.getColumnCount(); j++)
{
   System.out.println(rsmd.getColumnLabel(j));
}

----------------------------------------------

When printing the column labels I expect to get:

Column One
Column Two 
Column Three

but instead get:

COLUMN1
COLUMN2
COLUMN3

Is there any way to fix this?
