You can't modify the compress option of an existing column in all releases up to 5.1 ;-)


  A few remarks on your examples. Last time I checked, compression did not apply to varchar columns at all; a column must be fixed-length to qualify for compression.  


It's still the same in V2R5, the only difference is the possibility to compress more than one value...
