You can use DFU if you create a DFU program and exclude the TKEN field.
 This is a "token" that is a mix of alphs and numeric data that DFU does
not like.  If you have a need to edit this file on a regular basis,
create a DFU program instead of building one on the fly.

To all -

Whew! Quite a few topics flowing today on the ol' list. At the risk of
overload, I need some help on a totally new topic.

I need to edit some incorrect data in the IMHIST file - it does NOT
involve
a key field in the physical file. When I go into DFU, I get that lovely
message "The retrieved record contains invalid data.", and of course I
can't
see or change the field I need to fix.

I have neither the time nor the talent to write an edit program from
scratch. Does anyone have one written that they'd be willing to "lend" to
me. We're on Rel 6, but I don't think that the IMHIST file has changed
much
over the years... Does anyone have another solution to DFU besides some
sort
of RPG-written edit program? Maybe the SQL statements needed?

          Thanks to all -- Joan
