Re: SQLRPG Help

Mark,

Give this a try.  Note: I'm no fan of RPG Cycle but it is effective in some
places.

 FMYFILE      UPE E                    DISK
 C                     UPDATMYFILE

Compile this with parm IGNDECERR(*YES) and run it.  I think this will do exactly
what you want it to do.

Kind Regards,
Seth Shields

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?
