Has anyone else experienced a problem with the CPYTOIMPF command ? when attempting to convert a file to a CSV file if a " quote is in one of the fields in the from file, the resulting CSV file will still only contain the one " quote in the field ABC AB"C (as/400 file) || "ABC" "AB"C" (csv file in as/400 ifs) || ABC AB C (when csv file is viewed with Excel) Hope that makes it clearer..... any help is appreciated Simon Maundrill maundrills@greatmills.co.uk
