Hello,
I'm a consultant and I'm trying to use a trial of your DataDirect ODBC Wire Protocol to access to DB2 z/OS. In my test I'm using a simple COBOL (Fujitsu) program from a windows PC. I've a strange behaviour using a simple query (I don't know if I'm doing something wrong). The query is something like this:
EXEC SQL
SELECT * FROM MYTABLE
WHERE COLUMN1 BETWEEN :HVMIN AND :HVMAX
END-EXEC.
the COLUMN1 is defined as CHAR(4)
Host variable HVMIN and HVMAX are defined as PIC X(4).
If I MOVE LOW-VALUE to HVMIN and HIGH-VALUE to HVMAX the SELECT returns 0 rows.
if I MOVE "0000" to HVMIN and "9999" to HVMAX the SELECT returns 2 rows.
Using HIGH-VALUE and LOW-VALUE on z/os the same COBOL program returns 2 rows.
Could you help me?
Many thanks
Egidio
