When using *SAVE to move executable programs between

workstations, all necessary data (including Mac data

and resource forks) is transferred. Data must have been

previously transferred with the FILEFRPC procedure with

reformat type *SAVE.

xlat file

(optional) is the translation table file. Translation
file member ETOA1 is provided on the AS/400

distribution diskette and can be used to translate from

the EBCDIC to the ASCII character set in variable

length records. Translation file member ETOA2 is

provided on the AS/400 distribution diskette and can be

used to translate from the EDCDIC to the ASCII

character set in fixed length records. See the EDITABLE

and COMPILE procedures for more information on creating

new translation table files. The default value is

ETOA1.

Mac Users:

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

ETOA1M for variable-length records or ETOA2M for fixed-length records.

xlat size

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

value is 1000.

record len

(optional) is the record length of the translated
(workstation-formatted) AS/400 file to be sent to the

workstation. This parameter is ignored if translation

is not performed. The default value is 128.

input specs

is the name of the field definition member in library
“spec lib” that defines the fields of the file being

translated. These are standard F and I (file/input) RPG

specifications, defining the file and its fields. This

member is required only for the field-oriented

translation methods (*DIF, *BASICS, *TAB). See Chapter

5 for more information on creating F and I RPG

specifications.

spec lib

(optional) is the library containing the field
definition member (“input specs”), and the translation

table member (“xlat table”). If left blank this

parameter defaults to the current library.

workstation file name

is the name of the workstation file to receive

the data from the AS/400. For additional information,

see “Workstation File Name” on page 4-2.
