Nothing is unclear, probably I chose the wrong words. What I meant was I doubt that they change their standard procedures to provide the file.

Has anyone tried the suggestion and observed it to succeed? Otherwise, I'd consider it more wishful thinking than understanding. "If they can resend, have them run AMATERSE PARM=PACK against the VB file. Send the output file to you. Upload to the host. Run AMATERSE PARM=UNPACK”" "I doubt they can handle that file with AMATERSE, they aren't very flexible introducing alternatives. Thanks, Werner" What part of this is unclear? It requires the bank to "PACK" the file before sending it to the OP. This is a really basic method of sending VB files.
