Copy source from the AS/400 to a PC

You can use the MGET FTP command.

From a DOS prompt on your PC:

ftp as400name
userid
password
prompt
quote site namefmt 1
mget QSYS.LIB/library.LIB/sourcefile.FILE/*.MBR
quit


The "prompt" command keeps FTP from asking you to confirm each transfer. You
could leave out the "quote site namefmt 1" command and use "mget
library/sourcefile.*"  instead. Doing it that way will save the members on
the PC as "sourcefile.member". Switching to namefmt 1 as shown above will
save the members on the PC as "member.MBR".

Hope this helps!
