Hi,
It gives an syntax error message

Is there any syntax or ASCII Value to insert space?

Thanks,
jr

Why do you want an ASCII value? Mainframes which use JCL use EBCDIC, so an ASCII space character (X'20') is totally different than an EBCDIC space value (X'40').

My Requirement is make this column value

Select all

2010-12-0100:00:00.00000

to

Select all

2010-12-01 00:00:00.00000

the source data for this column is having timestamp value that does not have space between the date and the time value , So i need to reformat this column by inserting space in 11 position.

Thanks,
jr

Why not treat the field as 2 fields (which it is), date field and time field, and ouput them seperately with a blank between?

Try putting the edit mask in single quotes:

Select all

EDIT=('TTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTTTTTTT')

This is in my manual (PDF page 320 in ice1ca50.pdf), but it may invoke some other processing that gives different results.
