Editing the Record Layout in a DB2 Data Map

Editing the Record Layout in a DB2 Data Map

You can edit the record layout of a DB2 table in a DB2 data map.
For example, you can edit a field in a record that contains three items to separate the data in the field into child fields.
In this example, the MISC_DATA field is defined as a CHAR(15) field. However, the field is used to store three Packed decimal fields, each with a precision of 9 and scale of 2.
To edit the record layout in a DB2 data map:
  1. Open the data map.
  2. Open the record.
  3. In the
    Record
     window, right-click the MISC_DATA field and click
    Properties
    .
    The
    Field Properties
     dialog box appears.
  4. At
    Field Type
    , enter
    GROUP
    .
  5. Click
    OK
    .
  6. In the
    Record
     window, right-click the MISC_DATA field and click
    Add Field as Child
    .
  7. Add the MISC_1, MISC_2, and MISC_3 fields as children of the MISC_DATA field. Define each field as a PACKED field with a precision of 9 and a scale of 2.
