This section gives a brief overview of what the function does. It also indicates if any functions should be called before and after calling the function being described.
Each function also has a table, such as the one below which indicates which specification or standard the function conforms to. The first column indicates which level of DB2 CLI the function was first provided, the second column indicates which version (1.0, 2.0, or 3.0) of the ODBC specification the function was first provided. The last column indicates if the function is included in the ISO CLI standard.
| Note: | This table indicates support of the function, some functions use a set of options that do not apply to all specifications or standards. The restrictions section will identify any significant differences. |
