Robert,

I'm no expert, but my V7R1 Help indicates: "This parameter is replaced
by STMFCCSID . . ."

Also looks like it may be worth making sure no file exists with your
intended IFS file name - see STMFCODPAG Help text for details.

HTH

I know this is not an RPG question, but I wasn't sure where else to post
it.



I have a flat file on the system that I am copying it to the IFS using
the CPYTOSTMF command. So far I am getting it to download successfully
with STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII). The vendor is requiring the data in this
STMF be in UTF-8 format. I have tried changing the CCSID on the
CPYTOSTMF command to STMFCODPAG(1208). Unfortunately, this errors out
telling me the conversion can't be performed.



Has anyone done this successfully before?



Thanks,

Robert
