I'm trying to compare two tables in a DB2 database in z/OS using SPUFI to submit SQL queries.
I'm doing this by using EXCEPT
to see the difference between two SELECT
queries.
I need to filter the SELECT
statement from the first query with a WHERE
clause.
SELECT KEY_FIELD_1,LOOKUP_FIELD_1
FROM TABLE_1
WHERE FILTER_FIELD = '1'
EXCEPT
SELECT KEY FIELD_2,LOOKUP_FIELD_2
FROM TABLE_2
I got results back, but it also returned an error -199
Is this because the WHERE
clause is not present in the second SELECT
statement?
ERROR: ILLEGAL USE OF KEYWORD EXCEPT.
TOKEN <ERR_STMT> <WNG_STMT> GET SQL
SAVEPOINT HOLD FREE ASSOCIATE WAS EXPECTED
Try introducing parentheses e.g.
( SELECT KEY_FIELD_1,LOOKUP_FIELD_1
FROM TABLE_1
WHERE FILTER_FIELD = '1' )
EXCEPT
( SELECT KEY FIELD_2,LOOKUP_FIELD_2
FROM TABLE_2 )
