It really depends upon what form of reports you are coming from, ie. FASTR, WW, DW or STAR. They each have their own peculiarities.
Using the AS400 command, CPYSPLF you can copy any AS400 spoolfile to a file that can then be downloaded to an ASCII text file on your PC.
FASTR and World Writer both have built in tools to create files that can be downloaded to various formats on the PC, such as MS excel, csv, EBCIDC or ASCII text.

This is really easy if you use the iSeries Navigator system that comes with
iSeries Access. You need to have Windows Explorer open when you start. In
iSeries Navigator select Basic Operations, then Printer Output. Find your
spooled file, click on it with your mouse and drag it into your Windows
Explorer window. When you release the mouse button, your spooled file will
be copied to your local file system as a .txt file.
