Hi,
I am a newbie and just trying a simple thing which I am finding hard to do. I want to format the output and see the formatted result. I used to write this command in Oracle but it doesn;t work here:
column check_status format a50;
where check_status is the name of the column. Can somebody tell me what is the exact command?

Use CAST function within your SELECT, e.g. CAST(check_status AS CHAR(50))
