  • Subject: Copyfile to PC with fixed record length
  • From: afvaiv <afvaiv@xxxxxxxxxx>

I'm sure this has been discussed many times, but tried to look into the
archives using different keywords without success.

A file (AS/400) has records whose last field is alfa, so most of the
records have trailing blanks.
I want to copy the file somewhere accesible to a PC, as fixed length
records, but all records get truncated to the last non-blank character.

I've tried with
- CPYTOPCD
- CPYTOIMPF
- CPYTOSTMF
- FTP

The only way I get success is with CA Transfer, but the Application does
not allow it.

How can it be done? Any suggestions? TIA
