Sometime back, someone posted the correct way to write data to an IFS
file using ILE RPG and the IFS write() API.  I didn't bother looking at
it because I use the QDCXLATE program to transalate from EBCDIC to ASCII
before writing.  Now, I want to read from an IFS file (using read()) and
then write a different file back out.  Most IFS files that I read work
fine but I've run into one from an outside vendor that doesn't work.
The file is in ASCII, but when I write it back out, it's get translated
back to EBCDIC.  I verified this by converting the data using QDCXLATE
before writing back out.  Does anyone have the correct way of doing
this?  It had something to do with the codepage parameter.

Thanks,
Dave
