Re: CPYFRMIMPF of csv file with 2 separate record layouts -- MIDRANGE-L

Yes you can, but what I've done in the past is to use CPYFRMIMPF into a
database file that would just have 1 field long enough to fix the max
length in the file. Then use that DB2 file to read in the RPG.

Hi guys
I have to receive a csv stream file into the ifs, but the file will have

different record types
The first record will be one type,
subsequent records will be of another type
Anyone any ideas how to create (probably) 2 physical files from the ifs
files?
Is there a way to read the ifs file within rpg?

Any help much appreciated

Thanks
