Forgot about WRKDBF. According to the website's Enhancements page, it hasn't been updated since 2010. Have there been any enhancements to DB2 since then that could affect a file editor?
Kerwin, did you miss this part in the original post?
Selected Application Development ToolSet tools and their associated
commands continue to be *available but not supported *in IBM i 7.6:
- Start Data File Utility (STRDFU)
- Create DFU Display File (CRTDFUDSPF)
Someone correct me if I'm mistaken, but DFU hasn't been *supported* for many years (decades?) now.

In a former life I used FEU - File Edit Utility.
And there is also WRKDBF
Neither are free. But isn't ACS SQL support now allowing update capabilities.
