An FTP "mget" command issued from the desktop ought to work for you.

Software Engineer,

1. Go to DOS prompt, type FTP ipaddress
2. your login & password
3. TYPE LCD to know where it was downloaded.
4. mget 'urid.jcl(*)'
Annoying thing is you got to type yes for every member
5. for more info type HELP

To prevent FTP from prompting for each member, simply enter the command PROMPT before MGET.
