Far too long ago for me to remember. I'll bet, since it was when IND$FILE was 
my only option, I then ran it through TRSMAIN to get an FB file. At that point, 
a binary file is a binary file. When I switched to TRANSMIT I wrote my own 
rexx code to strip out the members on my PC.

Nowadays I run my own rexx code to take every member of non-loadlib PDSEs 
and create a sequential dataset with an IEBUPDTE ./ ADD control card in front 
of it. I then download in ASCII and I can open it with notepad. If I ftp it 
back 
up, I can either run it through IEBUPDTE or more often, I exclude all and 
find './' in column one. From there I can pick and chose which members I want 
to create in a PDSE.

For a loadlib I use transmit.
