John,
You should see error messages in the job jog. What are they?

I have received a file from an outside agency that chokes CPYFRMIMPF. ÂThe fields are pipe delimited.

The agency has converted this file multiple times, and the results are the same. ÂOther files are just fine. ÂWhen I attempted to use an error file, I got nothing in the created member.
Is this why some of you loathe CPYFRMIMPF? ÂAny suggestions on how to isolate and fix the error(s) causing CPYFRMIMPF to choke? ÂNot sure I have the time to write the program to split this thing apart. ÂCan SQL be used in some way to identify or clean up the file?
