CPYTOIMPF and trailing blanks on numeric fields

Hi!

How can I trim trailing blanks on numeric fields written by CPYTOIMPF? I
want to convert data from a DDS described physical file to a standard
CSV-file. The fields in the physical file are packed decimal. Trailing
blanks on character fields can be trimmed by defining character fields with
keyword VARLEN. But this is not allowed for numeric fields. Is there maybe
an edit code in DDS for numeric fields or any other solution? I don't want
to convert them in RPG.
