Dealing with incomplete lines in FILE SAVE
When a line in the text file with too few fields is encountered,
an error message
Not enough fields on line (number) in text file (name)...
is displayed and the FILE SAVE operation is interrupted.
Interruption in such cases can be avoided by using a SKIP_ERRORS
specification.
Incomplete lines are passed (omitted from the data file) by
SKIP_ERRORS=1.
Assuming that all missing fields are at the end of the text line, use of
SKIP_ERRORS=2 creates a data record also from an incomplete text line
by setting missing values for the missing fields.
