I used Client Access to donwload a physical file from our AS/400 to my PC.
It looks like Client Access adds a rcd to the end of the file with a X'3F'
in the first position.  I'm assuming this looks like an end-of-file marker.
I zipped and password protected the file and sent it as an email
attachment.  When the gentleman on the other end unzips the file, the
end-of-file marker is showing up as the last rcd in the file.  But the last
rcd in the file should be the actual rcd, which in this case is a trailer
rcd with totals for an EDI-like application.  Is there any way in Client
Access to not wirte this end-of-file marker?

One suggestion I rcvd here is to open the file in WordPad and delete the
end-of-file marker.  The file has 509.350 rcds and my PC locks up when I
try to open the file with WordPad.  Does anyone know of any file editor or
text editor that I can use to edit a large file?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
