I am trying to append my QVD's and I seem to keep getting this issue. I have tried so many different formats of date but I still keep getting this issue- literal string does not match.
The START_DT field is what I am using in my where clause to work out new entries in the table from the database. If I load the field without any where clause, it's fine and the format of these fields is DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss.
I created a variable vCurrentDay and it looks like this: vCurrentDay = DATE((date(Today())-1), 'DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss[.fff]')
So my variable is in the same format.
Then when I use my variable in the where clause as such: where START_DT >= '$(vCurrentDay)';
The issue will show. I have tried a number of ways of writing the format, changing the format on the load section etc but keep getting error messages.
I really don't know what to do to fix this. Can anyone help? Any help is much appreciated.
I am running version 10 SR1. *this is in the wrong forum because I keep getting an error when I try and upload this query to the developer forum*
if all the other things are fine, it could be an issue with LET or SET. What are you using to define the variable ? try with alternative. you can check the value in the variable using TRACE command followed by a SLEEP command.
