I have problems with sending files to as400 server with ftp in visual basic program.
Can anyone help me or give information about ftp on an AS400 server.

We've tested ftp on an as400 server, it worked fine.
Sample ftp rpg - sources for the as400 you can find in the red books.
Try www.redbooks.ibm.com

One thing you must considder before writing program for transferring files from as/400 to PC and the other way around is that PC uses ASCII and AS/400 uses EBCDIC. So any data returned from the AS/400 must be coded from EBCDIC to ASCII, and any data sent to AS/400 must be coded from ASCII to EBCDIC
