Many of our developers will give up their green screen when you peel their cold dead fingers from it. Besides the commands may be nice for some batch processes.

Doug Err... someone building a copy of a production box for Y2K testing ? <g> I did in fact do this after omitting a few libraries from the save and had to do what Rob is looking to do: batch up saving the libraries, then FTP'ing them. As I recall the method I used was to save them one at a time then initiate the FTP in batch and go on to saving the next one. I still have the code somewhere though it was kind of ugly as it was thrown together over a couple of days.... One thing to watch for with all those sav files: diskspace. Most probably you have this covered. I guess this means that a generic tool ought to provide for sending the FTP in "background" or for FTP'ing each file then deleting it before proceeding to the next one. It should also quite probably check disk space to avoid an overflow as it goes along although the IBM versions may well do this for you; SNADS failures once the storage threshold has been exceeded have been known to trip me up occasionally over the years. I hate the idea that a password that has save/restore capability ends up in a script, no matter how short the time frame. Cheers Evan Harris >Rob, > > >Interesting point on the number of libraries.
