IFS file to PF Member

["Daniel Feather" <DFeather@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
        I need to copy the contents of an ASCII file from the IFS to a
PF member. I am using the IFSFileInput and Output streams, and I set the
CCSID on the output stream to 37, which after reading some of the
entries in the archive is EBCDIC. However, no matter what I set the
CCSID on the output stream to, it always writes the data as ASCII. When
I do a wrklnk on the pf member, and take an 8, it shows the member
having ccsid 37, but when I view it using DSPPFM it is all garbage, so I
view it via wrklnk and it gives me a little message at the bottom saying
"File CCSID not valid" and displays it correctly, which I guess means it
is still ASCII.
        
        What am I missing here? Is it possible to get this to work the
way I want? We are currently using FTP to do this, but we want to be
able to shut-down the ftp service on our box for security reasons. I
searched the archives and came across some similar questions, but
everything I have tried so far based on what I have read, hasn't worked.
I appreciate your help!
