Thanks for that. Where did you get vmsbackup? Is there a version on the trailing-edge website? ed

Well, for those NOT running VMS in simulation, but wanting to get at some archival programs, I finally figured out how to make vmsbackup work. First, you need to extract the backup save set from the tape container file, so it is just a stream of bytes, without the block size and file mark information. In other words, just the bytes from the data blocks, all strung together. I already had a program that did this for cr/lf ASCII files. Then, the command is : vmsbackup -xe -b 8192 -f <filename> where the 8192 is the blocksize of the saveset file on the tape.
