+====== Convert Logical Files from DB2 AS/400 ======
+In order to convert logical files from DB2 AS400, we need to have DDS file for each logical file that should be converted. A path to the folder where these DDS files are located on the machine where the conversion process is running should be specified in "Advanced" window on "Choose a Source Database".
+{{:knowledge-base:database-migration:setup-and-troubleshooting:db2-as400:db2as400_log_files_conv_1.jpg?nolink|}}
+After that on "Specify Database Objects" page you will need to select the required logical files from the list of extracted objects.
+{{:knowledge-base:database-migration:setup-and-troubleshooting:db2-as400:db2as400_log_files_conv_2.jpg?nolink|}}
+Our tool will read information about objects extracted from DB2 database and when the tool will define that the object is a Logical File, it will check the folder with DDS files and will try to read the structure of this logical file from the appropriate DDS file.
+Here you can find a step by step guide on how to extract the DDS files for logical files that should be converted: [[knowledge-base/database-migration/setup-and-troubleshooting/db2-as400/file-extraction|How to Extract Logical and Physical Files from DB2 iSeries (AS/400)]].
+\\
+__**Please note:**__\\
+If you are using DB2 iSeries 7.2 version or higher, you don't need to extract the DDS files and provide a path to them. You just need to specify logical files for conversion on the "Specify Database Objects" page, the way you do it with other object types.
