Any good database editor such as WRKDBF, DBU, EZView, FileFlash, etc. will
do nicely especially if you know exactly where the bad data resides.

                I have a decimal data error that somehow long ago got into a
field.  Is
                there a way using sql toreplace the error with a 0.  When I
try a simple
                update it gives me an 802 error with type 6(data decimal).  

                The way I am looking at is to copy all the records minus the
field into
                a dummy file and place a zero
                into default zero in the bad field, update the non error
fields with the
                correct values and that would leave 0 in the bad records,
then cpyf back
                to the real file.

                Any suggestions on a simpler approach?
