Re: Data Transfer from i series to excel file or display give hexadecimal values fro date

Got the solution.
 
Well, in Data Transfer, we need to go to File and then Properties and check the option Convert CCSID 65535.
 
That did the trick.. :)

Subject: Data Transfer from i series to excel file or display give hexadecimal values fro date


Hi,
 
The user seemed to complain of this first, but when I check I to data transfer a file from iseries to display or file, the date appear F0F961F0F261F1F9F2F5.
 
I assumed its something to with IBM iseries access for windows (she was using V5R4), so had her install V6R1 IBM i series access for windows.
We use V6R1 operating system.
 
Is there a PTF or software update that's required to fix this?
 
Regards,
Vik.
