One way is to have a ftp server on your Windows machine. This is generally not done for desktops. It, generally, requires that IIS be installed because the Microsoft ftp server is a part of IIS. Another possibility is to use NFS. However, this requires that an NFS server be installed on your Windows machine (again unlikely) and that it be "mounted" onto the z/OS system (again unlikely). Have you looked at ISPF's WSA. I'm not familiar with WSA, but others have used it successfully. But I don't know if it can be used in batch. It requires installation of a client on your Windows machine. What I'm really getting at is that every solution that I know of to do this requires installation of "non standard" software on your Windows machine. -- John ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
