#1: SPUFI Update Table Columns Author: NorthernDancer, Location: DOWNTOWN BUFFALO, NY

I want to use SPUFI if possible to plug some columns with test data. And I want to Concatenate like parts of 2 existing columns together. So the new data becomes easily recognized. Say for example 1st 5 bytes of ZIPCODE concatenated with 1st 10 bytes of CityName. Would I just use the Concatenate character (whatever that is) between them on the SET ?? So then maybe SET HUBID = ZIPCODE(1:5)|CityName(1:10) ??

NorthernDancer,

You can do it quite easily as long as the target and source columns have the same attributes. If you have different attributes then you need to convert the source column to match target column attributes.

Thank You Sir, this is it easily as you said..............

Code:

UPDATE DB2T.OUR_CUST
SET HUB_CUST_ID =
CHAR('HUB-'||SUBSTR(ZIP_OR_POSTAL_CDE,1,5)||CHAR('-')||
SUBSTR(CIN_CUST_ID,1,9))
WHERE
ENTY_ID = 'YYYY' AND
AREA_ID = 'ZZZZ' AND
CIN_CUST_ID > ' ' AND
CIN_CUST_ID < '000061836' AND
ZIP_OR_POSTAL_CDE > ' ' AND
ADR_LINE_3 > ' ' AND
HUB_CUST_ID = ' ' AND
EXPR_DTE = '9999-12-31'
;

NorthernDancer,

Glad you got it working but I would suggest you code the sql's so that easy to read and understand. Something like this

Code:

----+----1----+----2----+----3----+----4----+----5----+----6
UPDATE DB2T.OUR_CUST
SET HUB_CUST_ID = CHAR(('HUB-') ||
SUBSTR(ZIP_OR_POSTAL_CDE,1,5) ||
CHAR('-') ||
SUBSTR(CIN_CUST_ID,1,9))
WHERE ENTY_ID = 'YYYY'
AND AREA_ID = 'ZZZZ'
AND CIN_CUST_ID > ' '
AND CIN_CUST_ID < '000061836'
AND ZIP_OR_POSTAL_CDE > ' '
AND ADR_LINE_3 > ' '
AND HUB_CUST_ID = ' '
AND EXPR_DTE = '9999-12-31'
;

Yeh, I just slapped it together to test it and zap some test rows. I like your way a lot better and neater. I didn't actually know you could leave so many blanks on separate cards and it still parses together OK. Idea
