RE: WRKDBF Bye Bye

Bill has been good with WRKDBF in the past when I discovered new things in 
DB2, or just when I started using stuff in DB2 that's been out there for 
years.

My current issue is with null capable fields.  If I use WRKDBF to add a 
row to a table and do not key in something in a null capable field, WRKDBF 
displays an error.  Granted it doesn't "error out".  It just displays the 
error on the message line.  However when I use UPDDTA and just not type in 
something into a null capable field, it works fine.  And leaves the field 
null.  I had to drop back to using UPDDTA on this file.  (I suppose I 
could write a program to do it, but I'm in a hurry and the only data 
maintainers are in IS.)
