  It seems I encountered a PEBKAC error.

  At some time I must have created the STMF File in production using
  *PCASCII on the CPYTOIMPF COMMAND, probably during testing, and when
the
  program ran in production using *STDASCII it failed.  It seems that if
  STMF file exists when you do the CPYTOIMPF command the CCSID parm on
the
  command has to match the STMF file.

  I am adding a RMVLNK command to remove the STMF file before I do the
  CPYTOIMPF command.  That will fix the problem.

  Thanks for the responses.


Joel -

IFS object security differs significantly from OS/400 or i/OS security. 
Remember that the RMVLNK could possibly fail on removing the stream file
if 
this program is run by different users, if one of them is not authorized
to 
the stream file...
