Re: WRKLNK to an outfile for query? DSPOBJD for IFS?

Hi, is there any way to display IFS files

Presuming you aren't interested in any of the IFS APIs (see Scott Klement's web site) you can always do something like: 

crtpf mylib/ls rcdlen(128)
qsh cmd('ls -al /dir/dir/dir > /qsys.lib/mylib.lib/ls.file/ls.mbr')
If you need the file to have separate fields, create your own DDS for MYLIB/LS. You may want to tinker the parameters on the ls command to your satisfaction. Alternately, try find instead of ls.
