Hi Anonymous

I believe your apostrophes are of a different format which is unsupported. Try comparing your apostrophe with the one I’m going to type.

’

Do you notice the difference? Are you perhaps on a Mac/Linux system? I could be mistaken as WordPress seems to encode them differently too.

Kind regards,
– Kevin

Hello!
For the last query,
I wrote : select DSN8.CURRENCY( AVG(BALANCE),’$’) where ADDRESS3 =’Ohio’ FROM T######;

It is showing “unbalanced apostrophe”.
Can you help?

Hi Anonymous, it’s trying to select data from Z09606.TZ09606 which is incorrect. It should select from ACCOUNTS.TZ09606, please check your statements again.

Hi Anonymous, you probably have already created the required tables and you’re trying to create them again. The error tells you you’re trying to create something which already exists.
