Hi all,

When I do a SELECT SQL, can I use a function to do calculation and return to a cursor? Example: SELECT cnoee, dmysum(yamt1+yamt2+...) from dpayrslt. If yes, how does the SQL knows what type and how many decimal it should create for the second field?

Actually I have done the above and the second field it returns currency which I wants. When I change the SQL to SELECT dpayrslt.cnoee,demas.cname,dmysum(yamt1+yamt2+....) from demas,dpayrslt where demas.cnoee=dpayrslt.cnoee, the second field becomes numeric 1? Why and how I overcome this?

Thanks in advance.
