Matt and All
Here is what I have in the Hex Display of the file
KADDRESS K Address 1800 NORTH MASON ROAD KATY, TX
77
FFFF4DDDEC4DCEDD4DDCC02DCEE64EE44FF
180005693804126509614D52138B0370077
As you can see after the 1800 NORTH MASON ROAD I have the x(0D25) that
when I display the record I would like to be able to see
1800 NORTH MASON
ROAD
KATY, TX 77449
I also have this in Order Notes that all run together.
The file was originally an Access Database that got exported to Excel as
a xls file. Then I transferred the xls using the Excel transfer to the
iSeries.
We are converting an Access based home grown Purchasing System to the
iSeries and all of the existing data has to be in the new iSeries
databases with the same functionality as the Access system. Which means
that the PO Notes and Addresses have to come across as is.

Bob,
0D25 is an EBCDIC carriage return and a line feed (at least for CCSID
37). If you're trying to make it wrap when it's displayed on a screen or
report, you'll need to handle that yourself. We can get special
instructions from customers on web orders with them in it and they way
we handle it is to break up the lines and put it into an order notes
file (this is part of JDE). When we encounter a cr/lf, we write a blank
record to the file.

Good Afternoon,
I have loaded data from Excel to my iSeries and some of the data
has CRLF characters in it which shows up as x(0D25) is there a way to
parse this to an iSeries carriage return programmatically
Thanks
