Modification 1
Weaker Type Check for Time Zones
A character-like data object is now sufficient in all operand positions where a
time zone could previously
only be specified with exactly the type TZNZONE or as a text field of the length 6. This concerns the statements CONVERT [INTO] TIME STAMP and formatting of
string templates and WRITE.
