name if the file is to be created with the TO3XB

command.

MBR

The TOFILE member name. If the member already exists, it will
be cleared. If the member does not exist, it will be added to

the file. *FILE indicates that the member name is the same as

the value in the TOFILE parameter.

RECL

The record length of the TOFILE file to be used in either
allocating (creating) the file or verifying the record length

of an existing file. A record length of zero can be specified

if the file already exists.

FILETYPE

The type of AS/400 file to be created (if necessary).

*DATA

A physical file is created. The value entered in
RECL is used to create the data file. This is the

default.

*SAVE

Permits offline storage of micro files, and moves
executable programs between micros. Requires a

RECL value of 1024 bytes. 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 micro, use the FROM3XB

command with the SAVTYPE parameter and

TRANSLATE(*NONE).

*SRC A source physical file is created. If a *SRC file

is created, 12 bytes will be added to the RECL

value.

A source physical file can be read by SEU.

*SAVF A save file is created. A RECL value of 528 bytes

and TRANSLATE(*NONE) is required.

NOTE: To create a *SAVF object, you must be authorized to execute the
CRTSAVF command, normally restricted to the security officer. If the
*SAVF object already exists, no special authority is required.

SRCSEQ

Determines whether a 12-byte source sequence number and date
field is to be written in the first 12 bytes of the record.

This allows the translated record to be read by the S/38

Source Entry Utility (SEU). This parameter also affects the

actual record length of the file. If you specify *YES for

this parameter, you must add 12 positions to the figure in

RECL.

*NO

Do not add the sequence number/date field. The record
length is equal to that specified (the default).

*YES Add the sequence number/date field. Actual record

length will be 12 greater than the record length

specified in the RECL parameter.

Note that SRCSEQ can be specified even if the file is not

translated, in which case untranslated data would be

sequenced.
