Subj:   Re: Using Add_Months with column defined as 'YYYYMM' (Char(6))
 
From:   Herd, Stuart



I've used logic like;

     select cast( cast(ADD_MONTHS(CAST( SUBSTRING(TRIM(DATE_FIELD) FROM 1 FOR 4)
     ||'-'||SUBSTRING(TRIM(DATE_FIELD) FROM 5)||'-01' AS DATE),-36) as date
     FORMAT 'YYYYMM') as char(6))

In code in the past. Not pretty, but gets the job done.
