The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I use both quite a bit.
CSVR4 is great when you need to be more granular (i.e. you don't trust the data) and/or you just want to deal with a streamfile.
CPYFRMIMPF has really improved over the years... definitely the way to go if you trust the data, and your goal is to get it into a Database file.
I use the latter so much that a wrote an RPG program to read an IFS folder and run CPYFRMIMPF for each "matching" filename into the database filename passed in. It then moves the IFS file (if successful) to a "historical" subfolder.
Parameters are:
IFS Folder
DB Filename
Field delimiter
String delimiter (*NONE or *DBLQUOTE)
Column Header (Y or N)
History IFS Folder
String (to match in IFS Filename)

I'll check out CPYFRMIMPF and Scott's CSVR4, and see which one I like better.
Thanks guys!
