RE: Accessing IFS from RPG

["Bruce Collins" <bacollins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

the people will send me files daily and the way I had thought to do it
was to have them FTP them. They will be sending fixed length records in
these files. They will be doing this from a PC. Please if you can see a
better way then let me know. You will not hurt my feelings. <VBG>

You don't need to have people FTP to the IFS if you don't want to.
Why are you using the IFS?

I am wanting my customers to ftp files to my AS400. I then want to be
able to pull the data from these files and build Externally Described
files on the AS/400 to hold the data. Has anyone done this and if so
could I get some examples.

TIA
