Catherine, It's possible to do this. You could also read a tape produced by another system as input to a program, including an RPG program, on the AS/400. This is going way back in time to before terminals were used, but the support for this type of processing is still there.

Has anyone ever copied an ISeries flat file to 3490E tape, and then used the tape as input to a mainframe? All IBM hardware. I'm really curious as to whether a mainframe could read a tape produced by an ISeries. Both are EBCDIC, of course, but am wondering about stuff like tape headers, etc. -- This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
