RE: Another CPYTOIMPF question - Someone please put me out of my misery!

Sorry to be vague, but I think there's a PTF for the CCSID message.  When
you copy the file to the IFS directory, does the target file already exist?
If it was created by the CPYTOIMPF, the command with the parms you showed
will result in an EBCDIC text file.  If that's the case, you might try
deleting the IFS file, then use the *PCASCII parm on the CPYTOIMPF, and skip
the code page conversion on the CPY.
