    Urgent Help Plz!!

    Hi all,

    I would like to request for a help here.I am working with db2 databases

    and currently been assigned a job to migrate from oracle to Db2.I have

    been struggling with a problem and being struck at that point.Here I have

    to read data from a temporary table to a delimited text file.In oracle

    there is a file utility package (f_open,f_write,f_close)to perform this

    operation but there is no such equivalent in db2.There is ofcourse an

    export utility which could be used for writing to a del file but I have

    been asked to deal only with a SQL interface that is through SQL Stored

    procedures.One option I came across was to use an external UDF built

    using C specfically using put_line.But when i created this function in

    the sqllib directory and tried to compile it did.But on execution it

    couldnt access the path.I am very much struck now and find noways to move

    ahead.I find no clue to where to store that UDF or is there any other way

    I can access this problem.Any kind of help/suggestions would be sincerely

    appreciated.

    THANKS

    put_line

    You can use a user-defined function, PUT_LINE, to write to a flat file.

    The URL is:

    Be sure to follow the install directions -- you must put the binary for put_line in your db2 function directory on your database server and you must run crefunc.sql to define the put_line function to your database.
