RE: Creating spooled file with AS/400 Toolbox

Hi Mandy
You need to create an SCS writer to create the records.
We have created this successfully.
   out = new SpooledFileOutputStream(as400, pList, null, null);
    Create the writer
    scsWtr = new SCS5256Writer(out, 37, mf.getAS400());
      Use the writer
      scsWtr.write(page.getLine(i));

I tried "out.write(line.getBytes("Cp037"));", but still get the same
error.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.  Is this ALWAYS a way to convert Strings to EBCDIC?
It's
much less complicated than the AS400Text technique.  The only difference
would seem to be that is that the resulting array from getBytes is only
the
length of the String, while with the AS400Text technique, it's as long
as
the AS400Text definition.
