RE: FTP an AS400 file .TXT

You need to read up on the Integrated File System.  And since this is the
RPG list, an RPG way to send data to another system via the FTP ports is
Scott Klement's FTPAPI.  Search the FAQ for FTPAPI and you should have a
place to start.  http://faq.midrange.com  The search link is in the lower
left corner.  

As far as ZIPping a file goes, http://www.asizip.com has an iSeries
implementation.  I am not affiliated with them.

If this doesn't help, try the MIDRANGE-L list, where other folks besides us
RPG people hang out.
