Hello Jerry,

But unable to download it with full text in the column headings (which is present in the base physical file from which his CPYTOIMPF gave output in a csv file format which is present at IFS location.

Physical files usually contain the field description. But that's not the same als a simple flat file containing a list of field names in the first line.

You mentioned, it's not possible to add column headings to an import file (text file in the IFS) with your release of OS/400.

It's still not clear what your problem is. Every other mail, you add a new topic, stacking up a pile of confusion.

Are you "just" missing column headings?

Are you seeing "garbage" in the downloaded import file? If yes, did you use binary or ascii mode to download this via FTP?

Of does your download not work at all? If not, what is the error message you're getting? "Does not work" is *not* a proper problem description.

I more and more think that whatever you want to achieve is partly not possible (as Alan pointed out), or done plainly wrong (because of missing skills?) and you should probably come up with other ways to achieve your goal.

Is this a one-shot thing, or is this download of data to happen regularly?

:wq! PoC
