RE: File Upload to 400

[eric <eric@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Can't you FTP it to the AS/400.  The FTP process should create the physical 
file for you on the AS/400.  If you have Client Access, you can try 
uploading the file to the AS/400 and specify no conversion as the file 
type.  HTH

Subject:        File Upload to 400

I have a file on my PC that is simple text file but the vendor neglected to
put end-of-record markers at the end of each (60 char) record.  Each field
in the record is fixed length and starting column, ie. no delimiters.  I've
tried a few things such as uploading through a file description on the PC 
of
the physical, and it hated that there was no marker.  I uploaded the file
into a document folder and tried CPYFRMPCD into 60 char flat physical (no
fields) and it didn't like that either.  I even tried using the most recent
posts regarding CPYFRMINPF and didn't seem to get anywhere (it also didn't
lilke anything I gave it).  Any ideas???  (TIA)   I am avoiding having to
massage the file on the PC at all costs.
