Re: FTP Externally Described Files -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Hmm.. if setting the mode to binary doesn't work...

First save it to a SAVF with TRGRLS(*V4R3M0) (target
release).  Then FTP that, and restore it on the other side.

Why you're loosing the DDS, I don't know.
