Fran:
That is not an option (or, better put, not an option that is
easy to implement), since the VM/CMS users are not on the same VM as the
VSEs from which we are punching the members. Yes, I know that I could
set up RSCS and, with VM/VTAM, I could accomplish this. But that is not
so simple to implement here, and if (or when) VM and/or VSE machines are
moved around, lots of changes would be required. FTP seemed the best and
simplest solution. And, so far, I have implemented submitting jobs and
retrieving output to/from all available VSE machines quite easily with
FTP.
Since we are doing a "mass migration" of ICCF members, I need to
automate things, and altering the RECFM after the RECEIVE is not a very
simple task. This is MUCH more straightforward.

I would not use FTP but punch my ICCF member to VM via a virtual punch.
I would expect RECEIVE would then make them RECFM 'F'.
