Chris, I have tried your suggestion previously. I receive a message CPF2845 ' The copy did not complete for reason code 11.' If I read the second level help text properly it seems that if I reference a stream file as my target than *CR, *CRLF, *LF, and *LFCR are my only options. If I reference a UDB file than I can choose a character value ( ',' in this case) or *EOR. I have tried every combination I can think of without much success. I have done some testing with first attempting to copy this to the UDB and then to the STMF but have not gotten the results I've expected. I may end up programatically adding the ',' to the UDB file and then creating the stream file..... My biggest problem is that I need this to be automated on the AS/400. I am trying to avoid using any client software so that this can be controlled centrally for many users. I am going to place the data on our IFS for them to use.
