Re: CPF2973 - CPYFRMIMPF

Cases like this is one reason we've moved away from CPYFRMIMPF and started 
using IFS access directly.  When something does go out of whack, like 
trying to move a 16char into a 15a field, you do not get the granularity 
to resolve the issue.  We used to download the file into Excel and use 
complicated formulas to determine the largest column width, etc.

Actually the IBM utilities are poor performers and you can do faster with 
a roll-your-own.
