Hi,

My problem is the file name is so long that it is exceeding the 80 column limit of the mainframe screen.
Is there any continuation mark that i can use and can continue to code in the next line..

PUT 'AAAAA.BBBBB.CCCCC.DDDDD.EEEEE' any continuation AAAAA.BBBBB.CCCCC.DDDDD.EEEEE.TXT

This will help you in understanding my problem.

Thanks

See Chapter 4.9 Submitting FTP requests in batch from the z/OS V1R7.0 Comm Svr: IP User's Guide and Commands manual.

Other options:

- Use a sysin file with a larger LRECL.
- Use the put from a DDNAME rather than from a dataset name.
