Hi,

I want to select all rows from a table 'B' used in below query.

Code:

SELECT B.TRE_CUST_NBR,                 
       B.OPTO_BARCDE_1,                 
       B.OPTO_BARCDE_2,                 
       B.OPTO_BARCDE_3                 
  FROM DB01.TRE_CUST A,             
       DB01.TRE_CUST_OPTO B         
 WHERE A.TRE_CUST_CD = '2500'     
   AND B.TRE_CUST_NBR = A.TRE_CUST_NBR
WITH UR;                               


There are 10 columns in DB01.TRE_CUST_OPTO table. Is mentioning all of them the only way or any shortcut possible?

Please help.

Thanks.

You could use
Code:

SELECT B.*

but that is BAD. As you only have 10 columns it is a minor thing to specify them all - just cut and paste from somewhere e.g DCLGEN
