RE: Getting a File to a PC with No Client Access

Sure, even if ETU doesn't know how to play in the IFS, you can create a flat
DB2 file (crtpf rcdlen(xxx) ) and use that as the target for the CPYTOIMPF.
Then just plain old file transfer to pull it off the box and onto the PC.
Just make sure that you make the file wide enough to hold all the record
data and field delimiters.

Well, the OS/400 version is V4R5 but I suspect the problem
will be that they are ALL twinax with no ethernet.

 The Windows version is W/98.

Can I still use the cpytoimpf and then ETU the results over
to the pc ???
