RE: CL problem

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you don't have the ptfs for cpytoimpf that allow you to specify the code
page of the destination file, you'll have to create it first using cpytostmf
(codepage *PCASCII) or a PC text editor.  You should then be able to use
cpytoimpf directly.  

If you have the ptfs for cpytoimpf, you can copy directly,  *pcascii.  

We have been using this a lot in the last few months, both batch and
interactive since I learned the code page trick right here on this list.
Are you sure you're using the same parameters for the command in the CL and
on the command line?

Curious problem, I am creating a flat file to be read by a PC by using the
CPYTOIMPF and then CPYTOSTMF commands. This works perfectly when run off a
command line, however when I put this into a CL it is not translating, in
fact it does not even look like a normal untranslated file, just a bunch of
garbage.  
Has someone come across this and know of a fix?

TIA
