I agree with Jonathan that case expressions are called for -- probably something like

     case
      when field1 is null then -999.99
      else field1
     end

and so on.

Another possibility is to write a Cobol exit from FastExport that would insert the rows directly into DB2. I don't know whether that would be faster than exporting & loading. The principles for writing such an exit are discussed in this paper:
