Hi Brian, Thanks for the suggestions. I finally found it. It is a setting in Rumba called "verify host screen".
My purpose in having the users run it thru ISPF option 6 rather than a straight TSO prompt is that when it doesn't work, I want the command line saved so I can troubleshoot it.

It is up to the terminal emulator whether to move the cursor to the HOME position, or leave the cursor exactly where it was when the file transfer was initiated. Maybe the terminal emulator has an option for the user to select the cursor starting position. Are you using different ISPF option 6 screens? The normal one is ISRTSO, but you can set up your ISPF to use ISRTSOA (which provides a command line). History on ISRTSOA only applies to the TSO command history, not the command line above that. I always tell my people who have trouble with IND$FILE that it always works correctly from TSO READY. It will *sometimes* work from ISPF option 6, but it will *always* work from TSO READY. I've seen problems where the data set name was really long and the command was truncated (when using ISPF option 6) and the same transfer command works perfectly when started from TSO READY. Of course, there's no history in TSO READY like ISPF option 6. Just a couple of thoughts.
