Re: Automated Batch Data Transfers from AS/400 to PC (using TTO)

[Martin.Cubitt@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

The reason we use Data Transfer is so that we can save the AS/400 database
files as Comma Separated Value files (CSV) on the PC.  This will give us
the option of importing these files into a Lotus Approach database during a
disaster recovery scenario, so that users can access key information for
some days until an AS/400 is set up ready for us to use.

So Sharing or FTPing will not work.. will it?  The data transfer is
necessary for the data conversion we require.

Thanks..
Martin

If TCP/IP is running on your AS/400 the easy way is to
install an FTP daemon (server side) on your pc (you can
find one very nice at www.daemon.smartftp.com ). Once
installed you can use AS/400 (batch?) FTP (client side) to
transfer your file to the PC. The nice thing is that you
don't even need to have client access on the PC. It's fast
and you can choose to schedule, batch submit or interctive
execute the procedure on AS/400. I mean AS/400 handles the
transfer not the PC.
