Invalid decimal data

["Fisher, Don" <DRF@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have a series of files, possible all of them, containing invalid decimal
data in some fields.  The only two ways I can think of to identify them are
to create an RPG program that will interrogate each field by executing a
Z-ADD operation and checking the error indicator or to execute an SQL
statement using each numeric field in the selection criteria.  The statement
should fail upon encountering invalid decimal data.  The trouble with the
latter method is it won't allow me to fix the data.  At least I don't think
so.

Does anyone out there know a more pleasant and convenient way to do this?

Any help, as always, will be greatly appreciated.
