Re: FTP Problem !

["Patrick Townsend" <patownsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ravi,

Sorry it took a while to reply to this - been recovering from Common in New
Orleans. We've handle this type of situation in our FTP Manager product by
providing a way to build a list of files on an FTP server in an externally
described file on the AS/400. You can then parse the file and operate on any
or all of the files. So the process would be to MPUT the files, make a list
of the files, work on each one (change the name, etc). Let me know off line
if you want more details.
