With an INSERT you're creating new records, not changing. K and V are the only fields that will have values in the new records. Any other fields will have default values or NULL as defined in the CREATE TABLE. One new record will be created for each record from the SELECT that match the WHERE clause.

Hmmmmm - interesting. I did not know that Todays a good day So in this instance, there are 2 fields one named K, the other named V that you can change on ALL records that meet the selection criteria?

Hi Bryce
couple of things
what does (K, V) mean
I have never seen that and just wondered what it does in SQL
The other question is
does the file that you are inserting into contain only 2 fields TRIM (CNME)and CCUST

This statement gives an error in RUNSQLSTM but runs fine from an interactive sql tool.
INSERT INTO BMDATA/RCM#NAME (K, V) SELECT TRIM(CNME), CCUST FROM BPCSFFG/RCM WHERE CMID = 'CM' AND CNME NOT LIKE '**%';
Here is the error...
SQL0199 30 9 Position 8 Keyword INTO not expected. Valid tokens:
FOR
WITH FETCH ORDER UNION EXCEPT OPTIMIZE.
It has not been a good SQL day so far for me.
Thanks
