Vern: FTP direct to /QNTC, hum? If it works, I like it. However... I've been battling /QNTC issues for a couple months through PID (or PWD or whatever it's called this month) and no hint of resolution yet. The best defense I've seen is to have as many alternative sequences as you can possibly get. Different sequences seem to work depending on whether you go with text or binary, or AS/400 to AS/400, or AS/400 to Win2K, or V5R1 to any, or V4R5 to any, or Java versus ILE RPG, etc., etc. I began with the streamfile APIs in ILE RPG and expanded from there depending on the combination of source and destination systems and operating system version/release/fix levels. As long as I stick with a known source and a known destination, I can make it work. But once the solution needs to install on "any" AS/400 and transport through /QNTC to a destination that is dependent upon the network path given, the single solution becomes unpredictable. Fiona can use all the suggestions she can get.
