I got a request from clients that a dataset should be sent to their mail box, and they want to see the content in mail , not as a attach file .
So I use XMIT to do this , I found that if I send as message , the message file LRECL can not > 80 , but the dataset LRECL is 392 ,
Is there any way to do ? Thanks !
1.96.5 Transmitting data sets as messages

You can transmit a data set as a message by specifying MSGDDNAME or MSGFILE, or MSGDATASET or MSGDSNAME. Using these operands might reduce the time it takes to transmit a file or data set. The file or data set must have a record format of fixed block (FB) and a record length (LRECL) of 80. You can transmit either a sequential data set or a member of partitioned data set. For MSGDDNAME or MSGFILE, you must allocate the file before you transmit. |

| Probably you need to change the default settings |

Hello,

I don't think there is any default setting that can be changed. MSGDDNAME or MSGDATASET has to be Fixed block with LRECL 80 for proper xmit.
| Quote: |
MSGDDNAME(ddname) | MSGFILE(ddname)
specifies a 1 to 8 character ddname or file name of the file that is to be transmitted. You must allocate the file before it is transmitted. The system transmits the file as a message.
The file must have a record format of either FB or F and a record length of 80. |

the requirement as described is confusing ...
You cited XMIT, but ...
the XMIT process wraps the transmitted dat set in a wrapper of at least 4 types of control records ,
so , sending an email with an inlined/attached XMIT file will just result in gibberish being seen on the receiver side.
if the <clients> want to see the data inlined into the email
( in the hope that the content is fully displayable )
just build the email text with the dataset content,
many samples on the forum |

| SMTP allows data sets to be sent as long as the LRECL is 998 or less. |
