Re: Deleting Records within a CSV file on the IFS

You've had some good suggestions. You could also use the POI java 
stuff to work with it as if it were an excel spreadsheet, I think.

If you are open to a commercial solution with more than just this in 
it, we have a product called RPG2SQL Integrator that also has Excel 
functionality - and it works with CSV files directly - 
www.rjssoftware.com or call 888.rjs.soft
