text encoding

[deepwater]

Hi,

I've got a third-party app running on FMS 5.5.

I am trying to receive an ADT (HL7) feed from a Hospital using Siemens OpenLink, we're a Anatomic Pathology lab.

The files I receive are "grayed out" when I try to open with the client to import into FMS 5.5.

I can open in a text editor, but nothing ive done so far will allow FM to open these files.

Text encoding?

Not something i can do with a text file?

What would i need to convert it to, to open.

The Siemens system is running on an AS400? I think?

File permissions are wide open BTW.

Any direction would make my day!

Thanks in advance ;)
