Yeah, that works for a data file - Dave was asking about spooled files. You'd need to use CPYSPLF or one of the spooled file APIs first to get things into a PF. CPYSPLF will put out a single column file - well, maybe it can use an externally-defined PF as the target - interesting possibility - to get fields. Anyway, it's more complicated, usually, when dealing with spooled files.

Did anyone mention CPYTOIMPF  (check spelling)...  this command will
copy a flat file to a CSV format file and put it in the IFS folder of
your choice.  CSV is readable by Excell.  CPYTOIMPF is free; comes
with OS/400.
