RE: Adding text to an IFS file

["Leland, David" <dleland@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Whoops, I guess I should have worded this differently.  What I meant to
say is:  any AS/400 object can have an object description.  I want to be
able to put a description on an IFS file (other than QSYS.LIB and QDLS
which I already know how to do).

Lets try this again.
