Re: Handling decimal data errors at the field level

Go back to S/34. :-) Use an internal definition with F and I froms to read the record as a character variable. Next use %subst to split the record and check the numeric ones. You can also use a DS to split the record.

Hi,

Has anyone had any experience handling decimal data errors at the field
level? I know you can trap for the decimal data error that happens when a
record is read that contains a decimal data error in one of the field
values, and I know you can set the FIXNBR parameter on the RPG compile to
automatically fix numeric values that are bad. But I want to know which
specific field(s) in the record were bad. It's OK that the compiler will
fix them for me, but I want to know which field(s) in the record were fixed.

Any ideas?

Best Regards,
