(Posted by: Dawn Nemechek 11/22/2005)

Open iSeries Navigator or Operations Navigator from the PC Desktop.

If the icon above is not on the Desktop, click on:

• Start, Programs, IBM iSeries Access for Windows or IBM Client Access, iSeries Navigator or Operations Navigator.
• Click on the plus sign next to My Connections on your left side of the screen.
• Click on the connection to the iSeries or AS/400.

If the icon above is on the Desktop, click on the icon.

• You will be asked to sign onto the iSeries or AS/400 using your user name and password.
• Click on Basic Operations.
• Click on Printer Output.
• Highlight the report you want to transfer.
• Click on the Copy icon on the tool bar
• Then, on your Desktop, do a Right click & select Paste

This process converts the report to a text document on the Desktop of your PC.

You may open the text document using any Word Processor program such as Microsoft Word, Notepad, or Wordpad.

You may also select the text file from Microsoft Excel. A wizard will open when the report is opened from MS Excel.
The MS Excel Wizard will try to determine the column breaks.
You may need to add, delete, or adjust columns to view the report in columns.

Your file is ready for documents, spreadsheets, graphs, mailings, and emails.
