RE: FTPing Save File

Hi All,

Thanks for all your responses. The save file on PC was corrupt.
New save file worked fine without any errors.

Thank you all for your suggestions!

:)

NAMEFMT 1 works fine if you need to create the target file at run time, but
NAMEFMT is not required for putting a SAVF to the AS/400.  I do this all
the
time and did it this morning.

Here is exactly what I did.

AS400: CRTSAVF  PGMT/PCSAVF

PC: 	opened DOS window
	Ran FTP

FTP:	OPEN 400DEVL
	USER me
	PASSWORD mypwd
	BIN
	PUT D:\download\istktv5r1.savf pgmt/pcsavf
	QUIT


That's is all there is to that.


Thank you,
Matt Tyler

Actually, the savf does not need to exist first. But you
need to use NAMEFMT 1. From the pc ftp session, you enter

quote site nam 1

Then you use binary, as you did, then it's safest to
fully qualify the destination savf with

put flname.savf /qsys.lib/tolib.lib/flname.savf

If not already there, the savf will be created, as a
savf, not a physical file.

This may not work in earlier releases - it works in v5r1
for sure. savf as an extension does go back to v4r4, at
least.
