Don't hit me, but is this doable on v3r2? (the Unix open/read/close api's) I agree. This is going to be a recurring thing that needs to run automatically. Can't be doing search & replace every time I receive a new file. Is CPYFRMSTMF an option? - Dan Bale -----Original Message----- From: midrange-l-admin@midrange.com [mailto:midrange-l-admin@midrange.com]On Behalf Of jpcarr@tredegar.com Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 2:39 PM To: midrange-l@midrange.com Subject: RE: Unix file to PC, weird LF-CR Skip all that stuff, FTP it to the IFS, then read it byte by byte with an RPGIV program and interigate it yourself, throw away what you don't want, write the fields/records when you want to. RPGIV with the Unix Open/Read/Close API's are alot easier than looking at it with some tool like word pad and wondering what you are seeing. Plus, the Bytes you see in the RPG program is what it is in EBCIDIC the way you are going to store them anyway. just $.02 John Carr --------------------------------- If you need to replace the lf character with a cr/lf before moving the file to the 400, open the file in an editor like Text Pad that supports hex and do a global search and replace. This is a one shot solution that assumes the file is small enough to open in a reasonably capable editor.
