Please ignore this problem. When I went back and read the instructions I saw
that I'm suppose to UNZIP FILE001 before I upload it in binary format to the
sequential dataset. Once I did that it loaded okay.
Just goes to show you, read the instructions closely before you complain. :)
Now I
I can't get CBTVIEW to work, I get to the part where it tries to download the
File001 and it fails, so I downloaded it to my workstation and uploaded it to
the mainframe as a FB 80 9440 file and now I get a message that says build
completed (then it pauses for about 60 seconds) and then I get:
Excellent, Thank you Tom!

I think there is a lot to like about Vista TN3270, price per seat being just
one of many.
However I do rely on IND$FILE quite regularly and found it to be rather
sluggish using OOTB defaults. Hopefully there exists a buffer size adjustment
or some other setting which improves throughput in
Pan Skorupka, I'm not sure whether I'm about to agree or disagree about FTP. I
use FTP as much as possible for file transfer, but I don't understand why a
terminal emulator needs it built in: What's wrong with just using Windows FTP
and MVS FTP? Which is maybe what you're saying.

I side with Radek on this. Some of you were around a while ago when Bob Hansel
posted his latest survey on the RACF-L forum and a newbie flamed him for
blatant advertising on a technical forum. The rest of us pretty much jumped
down the poor guy's throat: Mr Hansel has been a valuable

Tom,
You *should* participate in the discussion, I guess you are best
