What do you mean by “download”?

You have an iSeries and you have a remote system. The remote system might be a PC, it might be another server in your local network or it might be some unknown system out on the internet. When you say “download”, do you mean “download from the iSeries to the remote system” or “download from the remote system to the iSeries“?

Is the remote system in your local network? Can you see the remote system when you run this command: 

WRKLNK '/QNTC/*'

What protocol will you use for the download — FTP? HTTP? SMB? something else?

Do you have a user ID on the remote system?

…whenever user clicks download…

Clicks “download”? Where is a user going to click “download”?

Is that an icon that you will create on their desktops? Is it a button on a web page that you will create? Is it an option in some application that is installed on the users’ PCs?

Please provide a description of what the user will have available. Please describe how the PC and the AS/400 are connected across a network.

You are saying that it will generate a spool file. Do you want to change the spool file into a CSV file? If yes you have to write down a program. First copy the spool file into a work file using command CPYSPLF. Write a RPG program with a data structure, change the work file into a comma separated file. FTP it to the PC. All done.
