Re: CPYTOSTMF

Jim,

If your requirement is ASCII format , you can use the following parameters
in the CPYTOSTMF command.
If you need any other format , you can use the corresponding translation
table.


                                         Copy To Stream File (CPYTOSTMF)



     Type choices, press Enter.



     From database file member  . . .    >
'QSYS.LIB/YourLib.LIB/Yourflatfile.FILE/YourflatFile.MBR'
     To stream file . . . . . . . . .    >
'QDLS/YourFolder/YourStreamfile'
     Copy options . . . . . . . . . .    >                    *REPLACE
          *NONE, *ADD, *REPLACE
^^^^      Data conversion options  . . . .    >    *TBL
*AUTO, *TBL, *NONE
     Database file CCSID  . . . . . .         *FILE               1-65533,

*STMF

     End of line characters . . . . .         *CRLF               *CRLF,
*LF, *CR, *LFCR...


Note:  Here QASCII is the TABLE is QSYS library for conversion to ASCII.

OK, I've located a command that I belive will copy an AS/400 flat file to a
DIR, which is the CPYTOSTMF (Copy to Stream File) command.   I am able to
execute the command just fine, but the data gets scrambled to something I'm
not sure what is.

The file is simple text.  Is anyone familiar how I should handle the data
conversion options and code pages?
