Re: CPYTOIMPF

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

Documentation on the command is a little sparse. I think we found
information about it at the IBM AS/400 web site. Search for the command
name and also text like "parallel data loader". If I remember correctly
there is some documentation on the PTF description, too.

We wrote our CrossData/400 product to make these kinds of conversions
easy to do. If you are interested you can get more information at

Good luck!
Patrick
