Re: Convert PF to a Print File?

true, but for something basic, the headings could be the file name, standard spacing similar to Query. I will just use the RLU it will do.

want to use Code Designer in WDSC. But I don't know of a utility that
would convert PF DDS to PRTF DDS - how would it know about detail
lines and headings and spacing and such?

IOW, you have a PF and its DDS. I want to use this as a basis to create a
Printer file PRTF.

I guess something like the RPG ILE convertion from the older RPG. Now you are a
Printer file type of thing.

would use
Query/400 or Interactive SQL or an RPG program. You can also use CPYF
TOFILE(*PRINT) though it's ugly.

Or do you have printer file DDS specs in a physical file that you want
in a source member? You could use CPYF FMTOPT(*CVTSRC).

Or do you want to do something else?
