RE: [EXTERNAL] Detecting *CRLF vs. *LF

I never had much luck with *ALL either. We did a jillion delimited file imports/exports at my previous employer. I ended up having a table for many of them that included the CCSID, delimiter, etc. and my import/export programs were soft-coded and retrieved the parameters (via a CMD interface) to use for CPY<frm/to>IMPF.

For a one-off, I'd go with Jack's suggestion for grep.

Greg,

I seem to recall having some trouble with that option. I'll need to
play with it a bit more.

Why not use RCDDLM(*ALL)?

It recognizes either *CRLF or *LF

I'm looking for an easy way to determine if a .csv file in the IFS is *CRLF vs. *LF programatically. The record delimiters will be consistent throughout the file. So, if I want to copy it to a PF via CPYFRMIMPF, I want the delimiter type returned to the program. TIA.
