| Here after the Union, the col. WWDTA should have data but its' coming back blanks, but all cols are aligned.why is this?SELECT ALL T01.OHORD#, T01.OHSLR#,T01.OHORDT, T01.OHORDD, T01.OHTTN$, '' as WWDTA FROM ASTDTA.OEORHDOH T01, ASTDTA.OETRANOT T02 WHERE T01.OHORD# = T02.OTORD# AND( T02.OTTRNC = 'WOC') and T01.OHORDD > 20120101 UNION ALL SELECT ALL T01.OHORD#, T01.OHSLR#, T01.OHORDT, T01.OHORDD, T01.OHTTN$, SUBSTR(RFDTA,1,20) AS WWDTA FROM ASTCCDTA.WOCREPS T01, ASTCCDTA.REPREF1 T02 WHERE T01.OHSLR# = T02.RFSLC |

In Microsoft SQL Server, the query should return data if there is anything in RFDTA column. However, SUBSTR is not a T-SQL function. If you are using Oracle, this may not be the right forum. Most people here are good at Microsoft SQL Server, but very few if any Oracle experts. You might try dbforums.com |

| That blanks should come from the first part of the UNION ALL. However you would have values in the second part. Try executing only the second part to confirm itMadhivananFailing to plan is Planning to fail |
