Hi guys, I'm looking at a job that needs to transfer a CSV file from a DB400 file to a Win2K pro PC for eventual sending to a number of Retail stores via s/ware on the Win2K Pro PC. It has been currently done via ODBC into access, then moved via a Mapped drive method - very messy to me and damn slow - mainly im told because a RMTCMD wouldnt work because of Conflicting OCX type problems? Anyway, my feeling is that doing all conversion work to CSV on the AS400 (V5R1) via CPYTOIMPF with maybe a little help from a bit of freeware (CRTCSVDTA) courtesy of Martin Rowe, and then FTP'g it to the PC would be the better/cleaner/quicker/etc way to go. Having said that, what FTP server on the Win2K should i use?? I believe Win2K Pro has it own FTP server - would that work OK? If so, is it easy to setup and get working?Reliable? Or maybe some other freeware/shareware product? Probably cant justify a full blown commercial product ( other than pretty cheap one..) Any recommendations that work well with the AS400 would be most welcome. Regards Ian Scotson.
