Your file looks like one that a REXX program will read easily, and format it the way you want. I imagine it is a one time job, so it does not matter if it takes few hours to process, as long as you can write the program in a short time.

Hey all,
Trying to copy a very attractive and massive file that I got from a UNIX box
to my AS400.
However this "very attractive" file has the dreaded "nulls" disease.
Them voids between the commas are killing this!

Meaning
,,data,,data,,0,1
,data,,data,2,,3

What shall I do to get this file to happily travel the "cpyfrmimpf" route to
my matching AS400 database file ??
Now the "cpyfrmimpf" is griping about the "nulls" ...any suggestions from
you smart individuals is greatly appreciated ???

Tim :-)
