To answer the other question... you can find a list of common CMS Return Codes documented at the front of the "Quick Reference" (SC24-6111-00), under "Understanding Messages and Return Codes" (page 9 of this edition).
See: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/hcsk1b00.pdf This is one manual that's handy to have leaning against the PC monitor. I refer to it often when coding execs so that my return codes follow a pre-existing, documented pattern. We all instinctively know return code 28, why not be consistent?

I looked at the source for VMFTP and it return -5 on subcommand syntax error I run the VMFTP with the ECHO ALL option and I can not see a syntax error. And the -5 is always on the PUT command. /Fran -------------------------------------------------------------------- On Fri, 29 Aug 2008 08:05:23 EDT Fran Hensler said: >I run a VMFTP macro frequently and 99% of the time it works >perfectly.
