Answer Wiki:
You can sue the file transfer wizard in Client Access, it will walk you thru the steps to transfer a file from PC to AS400.

If you have Client Access avaliable it can be used to send a text file to as400. It allows you to transfer data from your PC to a library/file(member) on the server. It walks you thru each step allowing for you to specify formatting if necessary.

For the above PF1 file i have records in a text file.

What format is the text file in? How do you want lines in your text file to match with the two fields in the physical file? Where is the text file — on a PC? …on a server?

For that i need to upload the records without using ISERIES navigator and FTP also..

Are you looking for an automated solution? Or do you just want to upload this single text file one time only? And since FTP is intended to transfer files between systems, why not use FTP? If this is a one-time transfer, what not use iSeries Navigator?

Why can’t you simply drag/drop the text file to a shared directory on the AS/400?
