Thanks for your help.
I'd forgotten that the field DLDAT was not actually a date data type field
(I "Y2K-ified" some files long before date data types came out) but zoned
8,0. The following statement, based on your suggestion, created the file:
CREATE VIEW QTEMP/ALITMMST AS (
SELECT A.*,00010101 AS DLDAT FROM DMITMMST A
UNION ALL
SELECT B.* FROM OLITMMST B )
Interesting results though. If I try VIEW or WRKDBF, I get dumps. I _can_
run Query/400 against it however. And the DLDAT field is defined as 11,0
instead of 8,0.
