Am I missing something obvious (I don't mind looking like an idiot Nothing obvious. The basic problem is that ftp translates on a record basis, not on a field basis. AFAIK, you can't turn translation off on a field by field basis. Perhaps (heaven help me for suggesting it!) perhaps you can get one ftp as binary and one as text and use an RPG program to merge the binary (packed field) data with the text (all other) data.
