Re: Get CSV file
CPYFRMIMPF will do that, but make sure you change the default record
delimiter (RCDDLM) parameter to *CRLF.
CPYTOIMPF does the same thing in reverse, however, your .csv file will
have embedded blanks in text fields. If that's a problem, then you can
either use Scott's IFS tools to directly write to your .csv file, or
use one of the many tools out there to transfer between native
physical files and Excel/comma-delimited files. Again, with
CPYTOIMPF, you need to change the RCDDLM parameter to *CRLF.
Easiest way is to have your .csv file in an IFS folder on the iSeries;
FTPAPI can transfer it fine from and to there.

Hi All,
FTPAPI is GREAT! I do have a question about the get command. I
need to
get a CSV file from a server and place it into an iSeries
physical
file. The user will perform some maintenance duties on the file
and
then put it back to the server. The get works well when I am
using a
flat file. It does not work when the file contains more than one
field. I think that I know the answer to this but I promised my
boss
that I would ask: can the get command place a CSV file into a
physical
file with multiple fields, in other words removing the commas and
parsing the data into the fields? The opposite would be needed
with
the put command.
Thanks so much for your time!
Jan
