I have a data file with some packed numeric fields. On some records, instead of 12345F, there is 1b73x1 or some other gibberish that is obviously not valid numeric data. It's not null, it's garbage. A few bad apples are ruining the whole bunch. I'm trying to CPYTOIMPF from this DDS file to a delimited stream file. Because of this bad data, I get some records approaching the bad record, but nothing afterwards. I've tried CPYF to see if that would initialize the bad stuff, but no good. Any ideas how I can clean up these records - maybe reinitialize these fields to zeroes?
