Thomas Raddatz has the excellent EXPJRNE command that has just about anything you need for journal exploring. And it is free!

We kind of grew our own journal data converter that's fairly simple.

In SQL you can CREATE TABLE LIKE the DSPJRN output and drop the JOESD field from that copy using ALTER TABLE. This is fast because the LIKE table contains no records.

Then create another file as a join between the previously created copy and the file that you'd like to see the field data on "with no data". Again, no records involved.

Finally, copy the original DSPJRN output onto that 3rd file using FMTOPT(*NOCHK).
