============================================================================= AST RESEARCH, INC. TECHNICAL BULLETIN #0547A 03-22-90 ============================================================================= 5250 FILE TRANSFER ON THE IBM AS/400 These requirements must be met before using AST 5250 File Transfer software on the IBM AS/400: - The AS/400 library named QSYS38 provides the functions needed for the System/38 environment. This library must be present and added to a user's library list before using the AST 5250 file transfer software. Without these functions the software will fail to initialize and generate function check errors. - A period occurring in the name of a file which is to be either uploaded to or downloaded from the AS/400 will cause the following error to occur: ERROR 30 S/3X FILE(S) NOT FOUND Remove any periods found in file names before attempting to transfer on the AS/400. It should be noted that periods are allowed in files transferred on the IBM System/36.
