Some of my questions: a) At our site, a FTP client from Barnard (?) name BST... is installed. When retrieving a file from the PC, I cannot write a SAM-ESDS file, only "real" ESDS. What are the parameters to write SAM-ESDS? b) Can I convince FTP to write fixed length records (say 80), padded with blanks, although the sending PC file has variable length records (by nature)? c) When using REXX on VSE, what are the parameters to read "real" ESDS using EXECIO? I only have a working example which writes a SAM-ESDS :-( and one that reads SYSIPT d) Do (free?) manuals exist for REXX on VSE and for (Barnard's) FTP ? e) CA-SORT does not accept the STOPAFT Parameter, documented with IBM-Sort, but there is a NRECS-Parameter on the OUTPUT statement (IIRC). I always thought that the different sort tools would accept the same parameters :-( is there a free documentation of "our" variant of CA-SORT ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
