TRANSFILE

The qualified file name of the translate table file to be
used. The default is TRANSLATE.

Library

The library name containing the TRANSFILE file. *LIB is
the default.

Mac Users:

There are two files you can use. If you use the default file

(TRANSLATE), the member names have an M on the end of the name (for
example, ATOE1M). The Mac translation members are also shipped in a file

called MACTAB. The members in this file do not have the M at the end of
the name (for example, ATOE1).

TRANSMBR

The TRANSFILE member name. ATOE1, an ASCII-to-EBCDIC table,
is the default.

TRUNCATE

For *TEXT translations only: Specifies whether the text is to
be truncated.

*NO

The data is folded (this is the default).

*YES

The data is truncated, if necessary.

To truncate indicates that once the current host record is

filled, any additional data for that record as it resided on

the micro will be lost. Additionally, the record is written

to the host only after ETU reads an end-of-record character

sequence in the qualified file. The end-of-record character

is defined in the translation table (see Table 8-1, position

40-41, in Chapter 8).

To fold indicates that once the current host record is

filled, any additional data existing for that micro record

will be written (wrapped) into the next AS/400 record.

JOBD

The name of the job description to be used if XLATEFROM is to

be placed in a job queue. If left blank, the XLATEFROM

command is executed interactively (this is the default). When

JOBD is specified, XLATEFROM will execute SBMJOB command

automatically, and then release the micro for other work.

Library

The library name containing the job description. *LIBL
is the default.

FLDDEFFILE When transferring to a new file, specify either a source

physical file containing physical file data description

specifications (DDS), or RPG source file containing F and I

specifications.

Use the default, *NONE, when translating to existing host

files.

Library

The name of the library containing the FLDDEFFILE file.
*LIBL is the default.

FLDDEFMBR

The FLDDEFFILE member name. You can enter the member name or
one of the following values:

*FILE

Transfers the member with the same name as the
FLDEFFILE (the default value).
