Ian:
I know you are transferring this to a source file, but do a dsppfm
library/file member and look at the file in HEX mode (F10), and I like to
use F11 after than to place the hex codes one on top of another.  This might
help you determine what is going on here.

Also, you might try to use the dos EDIT command, rather than notepad.  What
format are you saving the file in in notepad?
on the PC if you use the TYPE file.ext command, does the file look OK on the
screen.

HTH,
cjg

Subject: FTP Text File to Source File Member


I'm attempting to FTP SQL Source in a PC Text File to an iSeries Source File
Text Member.
Inside the Ftp Shell, I'm typing:

ascii
put sqltext.txt mylib/qsrc.sqltext

which transfers the file to the source member; however, when I inspect the
source member's data, I'm finding that there's a garbage character in front
of the first text character and blank spaces inserted between every
character in the file.  In other words, if I transfer:

TEXT

I get in the source member:

<garbage character>T E X T

In some instances, the lines become really long and data gets truncated.

If it makes a difference, I'm using notepad as my editor on the PC.   Any
ideas on how to solve this one?

Ian Forsyth
