Re: Question on using a TAR file on a iSeries system

[Pete Helgren <Pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

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.
