Re: cpyfrmimpf null dilemma ?

Scott.
I tried just this solution this evening and was very excited as the
CPYFRMIMPF appeared to complete without error.
Then when I checked the AS400 DB file, no data had been put on the file.  So
right now I am still grasping at "straws", er I mean "nulls".
Thanks.
