What do your programs do? Alan answered that, by default, VM's FTP set the files to "V". I added a SITE command, and it fixed the problem. David Wakser

I have the source. 2) READLIST I only have the module, don't know where it came from, there is no doc, there doesn't appear to be any copyright notes in the module. It works.. -----Original Message----- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Wakser, David Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2008 10:54 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: RECEIVE question No, the files are NOT sent by SENDFILE but by FTP from a VSE POWER queue. David Wakser ________________________________ From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Walter Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2008 11:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: RECEIVE question IIRC, SENDFILE (or TRANSMIT {synonym = XMIT} on TSO) sends files in NETDATA format (making everything F 80 and including lots of control information). When you RECEIVE a file sent in NETDATA (by SENDFILE or XMIT) format, the file attributes are built to match what was sent. That's is likely what Dave is seeing, assuming that the system sending the files to his reader is using SENDFILE.

When I RECEIVE PRT files from a VSE virtual 3800 they are always RECFM 'F' and 205 bytes even if the longest print line is 10 bytes. If they were received as 'V' it would save a lot of space. /Fran Hensler at Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania USA for 44 years [EMAIL PROTECTED] +1.724.738.2153 "Yes, Virginia, there is a Slippery Rock" On Tue, 22 Jan 2008 08:38:33 -0700 Wakser, David said: >All: > > I am issuing a RECEIVE from within an EXEC to receive a lot of >files onto a minidisk.
