Angela,

Check off the "Convert CCSID 65535" option in whatever package you're using to 
do
the download.

Subject: Queries & Excel


     I created an as/400 query and push the results to a file.    One of
the things I do in the query is concatenate 2 fields together one is a 1
pos alpha and then I use the digits command to push a numeric to a
character and concatenate the two to make a new 5 positions field.

  When I download this file into query this field gets converted to
hexadecimal ???

D9F2F2D9F2F220030301   =   R2282   =    R ||  digits(2282)



  Any reason why?

Thanks!
