Depending upon how your receive it and how you use it, Winrar can untar the file so that it is returned to it's native form. At that point you can do with it what you will on the iSeries. A tar file is just a compressed archive, like zip.

We have a potential of receiving a file from a outside source that will

Sincerely,
