I want to write a flat file to the IFS on the AS/400 but when it gets there
it is garbled. I took a file from the AS400 DB and did a

CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(STORE/SUSERDATA) TOSTMF
('/lotus/notes/Inotes/ACHexport.txt') STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII) RCDDLM(*CRLF)")

on the command line and it worked great. How can I write from lotus script
to the IFS and have it readable in ascii format?

Below is the script I am playing with.

TIA

Dim con As New ODBCConnection

      Dim userid As String
      password$ = "user"
      userid$ = "pw"

'     If Not con.ConnectTo("s108db2b") Then
'           Print "Could Not Connect To AS/400 Server. v3"
'           Exit Sub
'     End If
