Dean,

I have created views with the both the EXCEPT and MINUS statements (they are equivalent) with no problem. I think your problem must be something other than the except not being allowed in a 'create view'...

Example:

This query works fine:

     sel * from lookup_hour
       minus
     sel * from lookup_hour
     where TrxHour in (1, 2, 3)

This View works fine with Except:

     create view test_view as
     sel * from lookup_hour
       except
     sel * from lookup_hour
     where TrxHour in (1, 2, 3)

This view works fine with minus:

     create view test_view2 as
     sel * from lookup_hour
       minus
     sel * from lookup_hour
     where TrxHour in (1, 2, 3)
