I hate CPYTOIMPF because of IBM's constant monkeying around with it every

CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(X)

Starting with V5R4, you can get reasonably close to Excel-style CSV by
specifying RMVBLANK(*TRAILING) on the CPYTOIMPF command.

On V5R2, the CPYTOIMPF command is incapable of doing even a decent job
of Excel-style CSV (mainly because it is clueless about quotation
marks within your data).
