Create Function or Create Procedure

Hello!

I work with "IBM DB 2 Universal Database for Windows NT" Version 6. I want
to create Function, which are using in a Queries. I don't want to use
external function. I want to create a function, which returns the age of a
person. The parameters of the function or procedure are two variables (Type
is Date). The type of the value, who gives the function back is long.

I try it with these code-lines:

Create function age(Value1 Date, Value2 Date)
Returns long
return Year(Value2-Value1);
These lines produce mistakes.

I hope someone can understand me and can help me.
Thanks

Frank

I am a postgres newbie. I am trying to create a trigger that will put a copy of a record into a backup table before update or delete. As I understand it, in order to do this I must have a function created to do this task. The function I am trying to create is as follows: CREATE FUNCTION customer_bak_proc(integer) RETURNS boolean as 'INSERT INTO customer_bak (SELECT * from customer where id = $1 )' LANGUAGE 'SQL';

But in this case it has to be multi-select. The database is SQL Server 2005 which does not accept arrays as...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
