Unfortunately, we are still at 5.4.

Robert, 

I'm no expert, but my V7R1 Help indicates: "This parameter is replaced by STMFCCSID . . ."

Also looks like it may be worth making sure no file exists with your intended IFS file name - see STMFCODPAG Help text for details.

HTH

I know this is not an RPG question, but I wasn't sure where else to post it.

 

I have a flat file on the system that I am copying it to the IFS using the CPYTOSTMF command.  So far I am getting it to download successfully with STMFCODPAG(*PCASCII).  The vendor is requiring the data in this STMF be in UTF-8 format.  I have tried changing the CCSID on the CPYTOSTMF command to STMFCODPAG(1208).  Unfortunately, this errors out telling me the conversion can't be performed.

 

Has anyone done this successfully before?

 

Thanks,

Robert
