This is pretty much the technique I've used also. Once you get the files into IFS you can run a program on the AS400 to zip them up for faster transmission. I used a freeware program called GZIP. You can download the AS400 version for free. Files zipped on the AS400 with GZIP will unzip with WinZip on the other end. -----Original Message----- From: allan.schmit@weirslurry.com [mailto:allan.schmit@weirslurry.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 10:05 AM To: mapics-l@midrange.com Subject: Re: FTP This is how I did it...
