Re: Access non-ibm file server fils from iseries

Good point Michael about database files. ODBC is not directly usable from iSeries. JDBC is, but I'd bet a shop that will not use IFS also will not use JDBC. Of course, I know what happens when I assume things.

We have a product - RPG2SQL Integrator - that use a PC middleware box to process data in any remote database in real time. It uses either an ODBC driver or OLE/DB provider. It uses ILE function calls in RPG to do the work. Check out www.rjssoftware.com or call us (me) at 1-888-RJS-SOFT.

Well...if you mean the IFS can't be used, then you take away the QNTC route
which is probably the best method of accessing, If the NT server files exist
in a database, then you can use ODBC or JDBC. If the files are flat files,
you can always FTP  them from the NT server to the iSeries. Check the
archives - this has been discussed before. Here's a FAW"
