(optional) is the record length of the target
AS/400 file (“AS/400 label”). This value defaults

to 128.

(optional) is the file retention (how long the
file is to exist) for the translated “AS/400

label2”. Allowed values are T or J. Specifying T

results in the file existing indefinitely (until

specifically deleted), and specifying J will

result in the file being automatically deleted at

the end of the current AS/400 job. The default

value is T.

(optional) specifies the type of data translation
to take place on the AS/400 file.

the file is to be translated
into ASCII text format.

the file is to be translated
into DIF format.

the file is to be translated
into BASIC Sequential format.

the file is to be translated
into BASIC Sequential format

with tab characters as the

field delimiters.

permits offline storage, and
moves executable programs

between workstations (see

below).

no translation of the file is
to be performed (the default).

When using *SAVE to move executable programs

between workstations, all necessary data

(including Mac data and resource forks) is

transferred. Data is not translated to EBCDIC,
and therefore cannot be used on the host. To

restore data to the workstation, use the FILETOPC

procedure with reformat type *SAVE.

(optional) is the translation table file. Translation
file members ATOE1 and ATOE3 are provided on the AS/400

distribution diskette and are used to translate from

the ASCII to the EBCDIC character set. See the EDITABLE

and COMPILE procedures for more information on creating

new translation table files. The default is ATOE1.

Do not use the “xlate file” default value. You must use 

the value ATOE1M.

(optional) is the number of records in the temporary
work file used in the translation process. The default

value is 1000.
