data decimal errors

<FONT face="Default Sans Serif, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" 
size=2><DIV>I've got a csv that I import into&nbsp;a workfile and 
process.&nbsp; It's created by a 3rd 
party.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>sometimes, they screw up and send invalid 
numeric data when I'm looking for numbers.&nbsp; I've been burned on this 
several times, and i'm looking for&nbsp;a good and quick way of trapping for 
the error.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>I use the CPYFRMIMPF to load it into my 
PF, and it doesn't care about invalid numerics - it just loads the data without 
error.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>my rpg program blows up on the read - no 
chance for the MONITOR in the calcs.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>can I change 
the program to 'ignore data decimal errors' and then use TESTN?&nbsp; or a 
MONITOR group?</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>any and all ideas are 
appreciated.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>thanks,</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>rick</DIV></FONT>
