All,

I finally managed to get an AS400 into a readable PC file.
The problem was packed fields.

To solve this I had to copy using CPYTOIMPF FROMFILE(externally describedfile) TOFILE(file created with record length) FLDDLM(';') RCDDLM(X'07').

Then use CPYTOSTMF with STMFCODPAG(819).
Then ftp worked with ascii.

Thank you all for your information.

Anne
