RE: Table Definition in System i Navigator V6R1

Gary,

Yes I am in the New Table -> Add Column tab. I only see 'Character' and 'Rowid' when I click on Data Types. Similarly if I try and amend or add a column to an existing table I still only get the choice of these two types.

Thanks

subject: Table Definition in System i Navigator V6R1

Hello,

I am trying to create a physical file on the iSeries using System i Navigator and the table definition option within Databases --> Schemas --> Tables.

When I click on the Columns tab and the Data type drop down box I only see two selectable data types, Character and Rowid. This is on my V6R1 partition. On my V5R4 partition I see all of the data types such as Character, CLOB, Decimal etc. The version of System i Navigator I am using is V6R1M0 Service level SI42423.

I have attached screen shots showing this. Has anyone encountered anything similar and do they know why I can only see two data types and what I can do to see the rest?

Thanks

Adam Mills

Adam, I am not able to view your screen shots, but when you "click on the Columns tab"
are you on the "New Table/New Column" dialog?

we are at v7.1 and I do see all data types from "New Column"
