Re: CCSID for Dummies - SOLVED

[Joel Cochran <jrc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Tim,

I went through the example you sent and was able to get it corrected.

I was creating the file, writing all my lines, and then closing the
file.  Based on your approach I changed that sequence to create, close,
open, write, close and it worked like a charm.

I think what was happening was that since the file was never re-opened
in ASCII, I was writing all the data lines as EBCDIC instead.  Strange
that IE still recognized it...

Thanks!
