Pete,
If you use CPYFRMIMPF with the RCDDLM(*CRLF) and FROMRCD(2) parameters you can skip the .txt futzing in your process.
1) Save from Excel (I prefer CSV format)
2) FTP
3) Create table with columns
4) CPYFRMIMPF (from FTP import file to table)

Hi
I have an excel sheet how can i upload this file to AS400 DB2 table, is
there any excel plugin to do so or iseries navigator method?
I usually save the worksheet as a tab delimited .txt document from excel,
delete the column headings, and the trailing carriage return/linefeed
with a windoz editor like textpad, ftp it to my home directory in the i,
create an import table having columns that exactly match the excel
document, then copy the tab delimited file to the table with cpyfrmimpf.
Sounds more complicated than it really is. It's pretty fool-proof, and it
works every time.
