Re: Can we FTP a CSVF file to local desktop in good format

i was able to download this IFS file using ASCII ( as checked it's CCSID
was 37) and by mentioning in TOSTMF parameter (in CPYTOIMPF command)
complete IFS Path but unable to download it *(* by following same FTP
steps in this link
*https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ftp-ascii-file-members-between-pc-and-os400
<https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ftp-ascii-file-members-between-pc-and-os400>
* just made one change in this command as per my requirement instead of
mentioning source file ,library and member name i just gave complete IFS
path for that CSV file in TOSTMF parameter of CPYTOIMPF command *)*
with column headings so to download it along with column headings what
could be done here?


Thanks.

Jerry, why don¡t you rather try this download with a simple QSYS path?

This should look like this after invoking FTP:

OPEN you_ibm_i_name_or _ip_address
Type in your user name
Type in your password
GET (hit enter to be prompted)
Remote filename: YOURLIB/YOURFILE.YOURMEMBER
Local filename: your_local_file_name_as_you_name_it.your ext

Then inspect your contents. If it looks like garbage, then, repeat and
before issuing the GET command above, issue a BIN command first.
Then follow on with the GET.

Try this and let us know.

I simply meant to say for TOSTMF WITH IFS file location here i just gave
example in actual CPYTOIMPF command i am using '/IFS PATH' ( IFS Path

means

i am giving exact IFS location of that CSV file)

So not sure how can i download it with complete column headings here.


Thanks.

TOSTMF('IFS PTH/desiredfile.csv')

To be completely unambiguous, an IFS path should always start with a /.

Otherwise, please more information, as asked by me, Vern, and others.

:wq! PoC
