Hi ,
I need to GET the data from a file present in an Server to Mainframe .I have the following details(known already!) about the Server ,

1) IP address of the Server
2) Username
3) Password
4) Path for the file
5) Data file-name ( Which is to be FTP'ed to Mainframe)

Is it possible in REXX to accomplish the above task without any user interface screen.

Yes, of course. It would essentially be setup just like a batch job FTP process.

Hi ,
Thanks for your immediate reply.
I have done with the Batch Job(JCL) to GET the data file. But my concerns is to GET the file by running REXX in TSO alone without submitting any Batch Job.Can you provide me the REXX Code ?

Code:

/* REXX */
...
Queue "sendsite"
Queue "ascii"
Queue "get ..."
Queue "qui"
"FTP hostname/address port (Exit ##"
...
Exit 0


I'll leave any other details such as dataset allocations, etc. up to you.
