RE: uploading dbase files using iSeries Access for windows

["Harman, Roger" <Roger.Harman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I deal with dBase files all the time.  We just convert them to what dBase called SDF.  Flat, fixed length ASCII.  

We use a generic utility program I wrote eons ago that does a dBase "use [somefile]" and "copy to [somefile].txt type sdf" and "quit".  Easy to put in a PC job stream.

After some casual glancing I don't see an option to do this.

If I remember correctly from a few decades back, one of the PC based RPGII 
emulation products used to store their files in dBase. And you could use 
dBase to report on it.
