RE: IFS directory name ending with period

OK, I must be going crazy!!!

Because now I can see the files using WRKLNK (I swear I tried before and
could not see them)

Anyways I mapped a drive to the IFS directory TEST. And they do not show up
there.

Can all of you see the files using Windows Explorer with a drive mapped to
the TEST. Directory?

I (accidentally) created an IFS folder on 5.3 that has a trailing blank and
everything works ok. I will test with a trailing period. I am confident the
results will be the same.

I took your CPYTOSTMF and ran it at 6.1 and I get a SALES.PDF file in the
TEST. directory...

This does not work
CPYTOSTMF FROMMBR('/QSYS.LIB/QTEMP.LIB/TEST.FILE/TEST.MBR')
TOSTMF('/REPORTS/TEST./SALES.PDF') STMFOPT(*REPLACE) STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII)


And as I mentioned in my initial posting this one works
CPYTOSTMF FROMMBR('/QSYS.LIB/QTEMP.LIB/TEST.FILE/TEST.MBR')
TOSTMF('/REPORTS/TE.ST/SALES.PDF') STMFOPT(*REPLACE) STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII)
