Ah. It seemed like too simple an answer; that's why I was kind of tentative. At least now I understand the problem. Could one determine "which member of the JES plex" somehow and then have a table that mapped that "which" to the actual system name? Or does this have to be more portable than that

I had not read your specification with enough care; my ftp example preserves the full binary VB record structure. So, then, after the ftp download, your (SAS?) program on ASCII can INPUT just the data portion of each record as ASCII text: FILENAME ONASCII 'C:\yourdata\downloaded.vb'
