RE: CPYTOIMPF - bug or feature

Patrick:

I found that you must specify *PCASCII to the SMTFCODPAG parameter to get an
ASCII output file. Our system is at V4R4.

                Hi

                Is a stream file created by the CPYTOIMPF 
                command supposed to be in ASCII?  I think it 
                should, but I can't get it in ASCII unless the 
                stream file already exist and I specify 
                MBROPT(*ADD). 

                Here is the command I'm using: 

                CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(SOM/SOMPFA16A)   
                          TOSTMF('/trash/Test.csv') 
                          MBROPT(*REPLACE)          
                          RCDDLM(*CRLF)             
                          DTAFMT(*DLM)              
                          STRDLM('"')               
                          FLDDLM(',')               

                Maybe the command should have the 
                CVTDTA, DBFCCSID, STMFCODPAG, TBL 
                that the CPYTOSTMF command has. 

                Any thoughts? 

                Thanx, Patrick
