Hi all,
We required tranfering flat/VSAM file to be downloaded to Windows/Unix box in EBCDIC format.
Pls note, we are not required transfer/converting in ASCII format.
Thanks in advance,
Anna. |

Your problem is not very clear.
Prima facie I think selecting binary mode
for file transfer will do the trick for you. |

- for a sequentioal file... no problem
- for a VSAM file repro to a sequential file and see point 1
transfer in binary mode and... that' s it
You might(will) face issues on processing it on windows...
but that' s not in the scope of this topic |

from the windows side...
for ftp before the get use "binary"
for a 3270 emulator wander thru the download pull downs and check the proper checkbox/radiobutton/pulldownmeny
if You are using pcomm receive command.... look at the docs |
