RE: Access OS400 shared folder from windows

Bryan,

We use a couple of tools from KemeTech called:

CVTXLSDBF Converts Excel type files to a PF
CVTDBFXLS Converts PF files to Excel spreadsheets

These work very well for us, and I believe they are VERY Inexpensive.

BTW, I am not affiliatted with them, just a satisified customer.



HTH,


Nick

RE: Access OS400 shared folder from windows






Jim,
I myself am trying to learn about the IFS. When someone says IFS and
doesn't specify a file system, what do she mean? QSYS.LIB? Isn't QDLS
one of the 11 file systems in the IFS?

I'm working on transferring data from an Excel CSV file to a PF using a CL
command; but if I could drag and drop the CSV to the "IFS" that would work
too.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Marco,

Why are you using QDLS? QDLS limits you to old DOS naming conventions of
8
characters (or was it 10) with a 3 letter extension. Using the IFS might
be
a better way to go. Your error might be a invalid name for the QDLS
folder.

What are you trying to copy and how are you getting it there?
What version of the operating system are you on?

Jim

I create a share folder in QDLS. I can reach it from windows, I can even
delete folders, but I tried to copy a file into there and it didn't
allow me. The error was, DOS command error.


I have full permitions.

Thanks,
