Here's what I see when I request help for the PUT command on my mainframe system: help put EZA1574I Usage : PUT localfile foreignname EZA1575Isend localfile to remote host and store as foreignname I don't see any option for replace or append.

Re: FTP option help
Mace, I'm assuming that you're using a z/OS FTP client to put into a Windows server (perhaps IIS). If you cannot get the append subcommand to work (and I believe that it should), the following subcommands may work instead: put z/OS-file-name temporary-file-name !type temporary-file-name permanent-file-name delete temporary-file-name Note that permanent-file-name is the file to which the data is to be appended.

Re: FTP option help
APPEND localfile remotefile http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/f1a1b990/5.3 quote Purpose Use the APpend subcommand to append a local data set to a remote host. Format Click here to display pages in Accessible mode __APpend__local_data_set__destination_file Parameters local_data_set The name of the data set on your local host to be appended. destination_file The name of the file on the remote host to which your data set is appended. If the destination file does not already exist at the remote host, a new file is created. If the server is a z/OS UNIX server, the local file can be appended to a z/OS UNIX file or an MVS data set. /quote -- John McKown Systems Engineer IV IT Administrative Services Group HealthMarkets(r) 9151 Boulevard 26 * N.

Re: FTP option help
OOPS! Sorry, I forgot that the ! subcommand must be prefixed with quote to get Windows to execute it: quote !type temporary-file-name permanent-file-name As I already said, it's an alternative to use only if you can't get append to do what you want. -Original Message- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Larry Macioce Sent: Monday, October 04, 2010 11:35 To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: FTP option help We ftp a file form the mainframe to a windows box,that is the easy part.
