The AS/400 is seeing those files as having one field only then.  A fix is 
to externally describe the files and then the transfer will know what to 
do.

We have just completed a s36 to as400 migration. I cannot transfer the s36 
files from the AS400 to a spreadsheet as it reads each record as one 
field.

Has anybody managed to do this
