Nobody has written a little 4K assembler program to do this, huh? Geeez. 8-)
Seriously, thanks for the replies. I will pass the info on to the programmer and see
what he wants to do. I like to code in Rexx to, but there is a performance issue
with this one. Not that Rexx is bad ( and not wishing to start a flame war).

Hi, Steve.
First, thanks for clarifying your requirements......
Since you've already done some sockets programming (in Rexx), this will
be very similar.
There are a couple of socket APIs available on CMS, if you don't want to
use the Rexx sockets function package (Adam and I like it, 'cause we
just like to code in Rexx; but your performance requirements may
precludes that...). You can:
1) use the OpenExtensions (I think that's today's name) callable
services from Assembler to work with sockets.
2) use the Reusable Server Kernel tool, which supports the development
of very hight performance TCP/IP based servers, again in assembler.
3) use the LE callable socket functions from a HLL like COBOL.
Good luck.
