Or use ACS, Access Client Solutions? That's the supported PC software now
anyway.

Hi Thomas, it sounds like you're using the old Navigator with a newer
OS...probably Windows 7 or higher. I've seen that tmp file behavior before.
Switch to the web based Navigator and download your files.
Or create a new folder, secure it, put your files in there and mount a share
on it, then do your dragging and dropping between IBM i and Windows with
Windows Explorer.
I can't emphasize enough how dangerous sharing the root is so please don't
head down that path.

When I try to copy an excel file or anything else from the IFS I am getting
an object on our desktop that has an extension of TMP with nothing in the
object. What are we doing wrong?

What you meant was to say was "be SURE to mount the root with
read/write privilege" correct? What could POSSIBLY go wrong??

No. And never mount the IFS root as a share.
