Check the job log to see if there are messages that help you hone in on the row, column, and/or value in error. Sometimes that helps.

subject: What column "Character in CAST argument not valid"?

I'm getting this error on a SQL INSERT, and I'm trying to determine
what column has the problem. Is there any way to coax Db2 to tell me?

The INSERT's are dynamically generated, the table has 66 columns and I
have about 9K rows to write. I'm trying to avoid the old "Christmas light"
method, where I have to check each column/row individually.


TIA
