Answer Posted / priyanka
If a variable is defined as varchar, the filed will have a
length variable also. Before updating the value 'X', you
need to move the length of the new value to length filed
of 'X'.
Eg: If you want to update 'TEST' in 'X'.
MOVE LENGTH OF 'TEST' TO X-LENGTH
exec sql
UPDATE table
SET X = 'TEST'
Where clause
end-exec
