it will handle the conversions just fine but you can only use sequential
read or chain by record number.

Hi Chris

I wrote a VARPG application that read an AS400 file and wrote it to a
local file on the PC. It did all the conversions for me. I do not see
why you could not write a VARPG program to read a local file(Ascii) and
write it to the AS400.
VARPG should handle the translation for you , or so I think.

Hi all,

I was curious....does VARPG have extra conversion capabilities that are
not
available with RPGILE? You see, we have an application that converts
AS/400
data to ascii for download to the store controllers using QFRXLT to do
the
field translation. I now have to write an application that does the
opposite, converting ascii to ebcdic. I found the QDCXLATE API and I
assume
that may be a newer conversion utility. However, I'm wondering if I
might be
able to create a non-GUI VARPG application that could make the data
conversion process easier? Does this make any sense or am I way out in
left
field? Perhaps, someone may have even another solution......

Thanks,
