RE: Downloading data from AS/400

Try This:

In Client Access, get to the "Data Transfer from AS/400" pop-up window.

Then, select the pull-down option for File.

Select the option for properties.

In the Conversions tab, there is a check box for "Convert CCSID 65535"

Good luck!

Subject: Downloading data from AS/400





Dear all

we're running Queries in BPCS on the AS400, create output files and want to
download them to a PC.
This download is done either with the 'IBM AS400 Client Access' or with
NetSoft's 'NS/Transfer'.

Sometimes in the queries we manipulate data such as converting and
concetenating them e.g. the customer order status flags in file ECL

example:
STATUS        digits(ECL.CLSTS1) !! digits(ECL.CLSTS2) !!
digits(ECL.CLSTS3) !! digits(ECL.CLSTS4) !! digits(ECL.CLSTS5)

the output is a string like '00001'

Downloading this string the result in Excel or a text file is 'F0F0F0F0F1'

We found that this problem apears in on some PCs and on some PCs not.



I'd be very happy if anyone has a simple solution


Best Regards
Andreas
