RE: Rather urgent CPYTOSTMF problem

["Raby, Steve" <agnictsr@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just tried that and this is what we get now:

Object not found.  Object is /home/AGCSYSBH/agftpout/F001407415.TMP.
Object not copied.  Object is                                       
  /QSYS.lib/AGCFTPOUT.lib/F001407415.file/SND.mbr.

You need to put a forward slash first in your &PATH variable, 
otherwise it looks in what is the user's current directory. You can 
look at the user profile to see what that should be - look at the 
help for explanation of how it works - too long to explain here.

Problem here is that there is a directory with his name under /home - 
that is assumed to be the starting point for relative path names 
(those without a leading slash).
