Catherine,

The steps to accomplish this are:
1. Create the file on the iSeries.  
2. INZTAP using standard labels
3. CPYTOTAP  - Copies the file to the tape
4. send it to the other computer.

Subject: tape

Please keep a straight face.
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.
