Ok, I am making some headway. However the archives have alluded to some magic ptf that will give further options on the CPYTOIMPF command. I am on V4R5. This is the monkeyshines I have to pull now to get this to work. CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(*LIBL/&FILE) TOSTMF(&IFSFILE) + RCDDLM(*CRLF) /* | Convert the code page into something that SNDEMAIL will | handle. */ CHGVAR VAR(&SENDFILE) VALUE(&DIR + *TCAT '/' *TCAT &FILE *TCAT '_A.TXT') DEL OBJLNK(&SENDFILE) MONMSG MSGID(CPFA0A9) /* Object not found */ CPY OBJ(&IFSFILE) TOOBJ(&SENDFILE) + TOCODEPAGE(*PCASCII) DTAFMT(*TEXT) DEL OBJLNK(&IFSFILE) ... SNDEMAIL ADDRESSEE((ROB@DEKKO.COM 'Rob Berendt')) + SENDER(DONOTREPLY@DEKKO.COM 'The AS400') + SUBJECT(&SUBJECT) FILENAME(&SENDFILE) + MESSAGE(&MESSAGE) Notice the parameters TOCODEPAGE and DTAFMT? I searched the archives for CPYTOIMPF and CODEPAGE. After reviewing the archives I do appreciate what Roger was doing by creating the file first instead of the additional copy. What I have is functional. So is there some magic PTF, or is there a fungus on this apple I am eating? Thanks to y'all for your help! Rob Berendt ================== Remember the Cole! rob@dekko.com Sent by: To: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com owner-midrange-l@mi cc: drange.com Subject: SNDEMAIL: Having problems with a text file 02/26/01 09:23 AM Please respond to MIDRANGE-L I am attempting to use SNDEMAIL to send out a text file and I am having problems. I can view the file fine in the IFS with the WRKLNK command. However when I send it as an attachment it appears garbled. Here are my steps: First I have a physical file with defined fields created as an output file from Query/400. It has a CCSID of 37. Then I use the command: CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(*LIBL/&FILE) TOSTMF(&IFSFfile) RCDDLM(*CRLF) This created an IFS file with a code page of 37 and a file format of *TYPE2. I can view the file fine in the IFS with the WRKLNK command. I am not storing it in QDLS; just at the root. For example '/mmtest3.txt' Then I use the command: SNDEMAIL ADDRESSEE((ROB@DEKKO.COM 'Rob Berendt')) SENDER(THEAS400@DEKKO.COM 'Friendly AS400') SUBJECT('This is your requested data.') FILENAME ('/mmtest3.txt') MESSAGE('This text file may be opened in Excel and manipulated there.') The attachment is now gibberish.
