What about this kinda format...
update qtemp/fcmst# as Q
set (FCJAN,FCFEB,FCMAR,FCAPR,FCMAY,FCJUN,FCJUL) =
(Select
coalesce(FCJAN,reqnullvalue),coalesce(FCFEB,reqnullvalue),...
From LIBNAME/FCMST# as A
Where Q.ITNBR = A.ITNBR and Q.CTYPE = A.CTYPE and
A.FISYY = 2008)
Where FISYY = 2028

Hi all,
I am working on an SQL statement to update fields in a file. Here
is what I have so far:
update qtemp/fcmst# as Q
set (FCJAN,FCFEB,FCMAR,FCAPR,FCMAY,FCJUN,FCJUL) =
(Select FCJAN,FCFEB,FCMAR,FCAPR,FCMAY,FCJUN,FCJUL
From LIBNAME/FCMST# as A
Where Q.ITNBR = A.ITNBR and Q.CTYPE = A.CTYPE and
A.FISYY = 2008)
Where FISYY = 2028
I
am working on this in an interactive SQL session prior to moving to an
RPG program. I am receiving the following error message: "Null values
not allowed in column or variable FCJAN". I have tried using the
Coalesce SQL statement but that will only allow me to move one month at
a time. Here is an example that works for only one month:
update qtemp/fcmst# as Q
set FCJAN =
Coalesce((Select FCJAN
From LIBNAME/FCMST# as A
Where Q.ITNBR = A.ITNBR and Q.CTYPE = A.CTYPE and
A.FISYY = 2008),FCJAN)
Where FISYY = 2028
The
overall goal would be move 7 months of data from one fiscal year to
another. I am sure my syntax is correct but I am missing something that
I do not see it right now. I would appreciate any help. Man I hate
Mondays.
