Bill, It's been a long time since I've used ISPF option 3.7.2 to transfer files as I always do file transfers using SimpList. But, from what I remember you should be able to select individual members to transfer, or enter a member pattern on the member list command line; e.g. enter 'S *' to transfer every member in a list. If 3.7.2 doesn't do what you want, send me a message off-list and I'll send you a free copy of SimpList to try. It makes file transfers *very* simple, and gives you a lot more options than you get in 3.7.2. Dave Salt
