Re: Copy variable to PF

David,
as a smart remark I was going to suggest S36 mode, and just do a write. :)

you could code a function to use the CPYFRMIMPF (copy from Import file),
but you would have to put this string of data out to a PF or the IFS first.

Hi,

A coworker asks :

For a neat way to do this :
Copier the variable MyVar= 'Abcd;cdef;ghijk;12345678aa;'

To a physical file so :
FIELD1 FIELD2 FIELD3 FIELD4
Abcd cdef ghijk 12345678aa

There are a fixed number of fields, but with varying lengths separated by semi-colons.

Thanks.
