Hi there

I have a requirement to create a variable block binary file on AIX.

Once the file has been feed with info , the file needs to be ftp to MVS.

The problem experienced; when transferring the file to MVS.
MVS does not pick up the carriage return line feed, which OA OD, It is one continous file.

Example of the file please view attachment
Thank you again

Do you have the "NOWRAPrecord" option on your MVS ftp server ?

NoWraprecord may not be the correct option .. there are ebcdic and code page options that may be worth trying .. failing that I would dump this onto a z/os / MVS message board :)
