RE: Unzipping and FTP

Here's the quickeasydone way rather than piecemealing this.

Assumptions:
On your PC you have a file.  Say it's called:  savefile.file
On your 400 you have created a savefile.  Called:  MYLIB/SAVEFILE
(CRTSAVF MYLIB/SAVEFILE)

 1.  Create a folder on your PC called c:\to400
 2.  Put the PC file savefile.file in the c:\to400 folder
 3.  Click start/run
 4.  Enter cmd and press enter (should bring up dos prompt)
 5.  Type:  CD TO400  (this will put you in your folder you created)
    - you can type DIR right now to ensure the savefile.file is there
 6.  Type:  FTP x.x.x.x  where x.x.x.x = your 400's IP
 7.  Enter username
 8.  Enter password
 9.  Type:  bin
10.  Type:  put savefile.file mylib/savefile
11.  When complete, on the 400 do a:  DSPSAVF MYLIB/SAVEFILE
     All should be well.

IS the savf the same name as the FTP item?
