I'm not certain if you can do it from the command line, but if you put this CL into a source member //BCHJOB ENTDTA CRTPF QGPL/DUMMYFILE RCDLEN(128) CPYF INPUT QGPL/DUMMYFILE MBROPT(*ADD) file://DATA INPUT RECORD 1 RECORD 2 file://ENDBCHJOB and execute it with this command SBMDBJOB FILE(QTXTSRC) MBR(ENTDTA) JOBQ(QS36EVOKE) You'll find your file populated. Since this is the RPG list, in order to do this in RPG, you need an F spec for a program described file called INPUT, and corresponding I specs. The output is determined the same way. If I had to use the command line interactively, I'd probably try some QSH trick (which I'd have to look up because it's just a guess on my part.) If I may ask, what business problem are you trying to solve? Perhaps there's an altogether different approach that will be more useful to you? --buck
