I never use IND$FILE. The following only applies to using a TCP/IP connection. Start up an FTP session with the mainframe. Once you have entered your mainframe userid and password, enter the commands: bin quote stru r get LUOXK.BACKUP The "magic" is in the "quote stru r" command. This tell the IBM ftp server to specially code the file as it is being downloaded to include end-of-record indicators. You need to remember the file LRECL, BLKSIZE, and RECFM for when you want to upload. To upload back to the z/OS system, enter your userid and password, then use the commands: bin quote stru r quote site recfm=? lrecl=? blksize=? pri=? sec=? cylinders put LUOXK.BACKUP You'll need to replace the question marks in the "quote site" with the appropriate values for the RECFM, LRECL, BLKSIZE, primary and second space allocations. I have successfully done this. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
