Tony,
Is there anyway to tell if a new column being added to the end of a table that's marked as NOT NULL DEFAULT ' ' COMPRESS ' ' is actually
getting compressed.
The Filer utility will allow you to examine the contents of Cis, rows, data blocks, and, I believe, the indicator bytes that Chuck
referenced. It is a utility that runs from the Supervisor Window. There is a lot of documentation about in the Teradata RDBMS Utilities,
Volume 1, A-K Manual.
