Hi,

One of our table has following two fields:

      AMT_USD DECIMAL(15,2) NOT NULL,
      AMT_BLNG_CURNCY DECIMAL(15,2),

then I applied "alter table":

        alter table gdw_tables.dw_accounts_sd_w_cur
        add         AMT_USD DECIMAL(18,2),
        add         AMT_BLNG_CURNCY DECIMAL(18,2);

        Now it comes this:

        AMT_USD DECIMAL(18,2) FORMAT '--------------.99',
        AMT_BLNG_CURNCY DECIMAL(18,2) FORMAT '--------------.99',

My question is : are formats correct here? Or should I give "format" definition when I did alter table? If yes, what kind format I should use?

Thanks,

mei
