Hi All,

Need some help in converting Ebcdic file to Ascii. I also have a copy book. 

Thank you,
Tamil.

I don't know if there is any RF library that will do this, I checked Mainframe3270 but it didn't have anything so you will probably need to create your own keyword to do this.

I found ebcdic-to-ascii-conversions which described a command line way of converting the file, you could call the dd command with Run and then use Get File if you want to read the converted file. Use variables in your keyword so you can re-use it for all the files you need to convert.

Hope that helps,

Dave.
