We're currently moving from Rumba as our terminal emulator to IBM's Personal 
Communications (PComm) 5.9 and have encountered a problem with file 
transfer - specifically receiving a text file from an MVS/TSO host into a 
Windows PC file.

The problem is the EOF (end-of file) character (hex 1A) that is appended to 
each file.  It displays in Windows Notepad (and Word) as a sort of box 
character (lozenge?).  This didn't happen in Rumba and doesn't happen with 
FTP and causes problems with another Windows server application.

My question is, can I prevent PComm RECEIVE from adding this character, 
while maintaining the CRLF and ASCII translation? 

Thanks,
