Hello,
I downloaded files from CMS in packed format (COPY with PACK option) with
the TEXT option for IND$FILE.
I will restore these files with IND$FILE.
You must use the BINary option. Packed files are no longer text.
You must also restore to the same record format (Fixed) and record
length (1024?) as original.
Bonne chance!
Some binary informations are translated and it is impossible to UNPACK the
file when it was uploaded.
There is a REXX to get the proper format when I have uploaded the file ?
A sample program is enclosed.
This is a FORTRAN program lrecl 80 recfm F.
