Hi all
I've transferred files using the Reflections software product from the as400 to PCs without a problem, but can't go PC to as400. Can anyone tell me how to do it? Thank you.

I have used the IBM client for files going up, and I have found the following. When taking a file up,,, it is best to populate the PF on the As400, with dummy data, and take it down first. That way I get a "good" file defination created, and I take it down going to the file type that I will eventually use when coming back. I like using a CVS file, seems to work better. BUt then when I come back up, I already have the file defination generated, and so the mapping works better. Hope this has helped. if you want tell me what kind of error message you are getting, and maybe we can figure out what is happening..
 
Make sure that if you don't have a pf created to accept the data on the AS400 that you have selected create file and member under the to host transfer options.
