We have a table which contains a 3 byte column with datatype CHAR(3) which we want to redefine within the view as a CHAR(1) column and a CHAR(2) column. When I code the SUBSTR function the resulting column datatype is TEXT. I would like to see the CHAR datatype, is there anything I can do to set the proper datatype. The sample view is below:
CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW schema.jeff_view AS
SELECT col1 ,
col2,
Substr(col3,1,1) as col3_part1,
Substr(col3,2) as col3_part2,
col4
FROM schema.jeff_table;
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Jeff
