The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
As long as you know where the file went, you could use a SYSC subcommand
after your MGET to run a qshell command or shell script to rename the
file for you. I don't know if you could get a way with a simple mv
command with a wildcard, but you could certainly write a small shell
script that would do the job.

Subject:
I'm trying to automate a process that retrieves a file via FTP from a
vendor that is named using a date/time stamp. In other words, the file
name will dynamically change each time it is created. Can I rename this
file on either end somehow? If I use GET I must know the file name to
begin with.
If I use MGET with a wild card, I can get the file, but I can't specify
the destination name, so now I have a file in my IFS but I don't know
the name.
It appears RENAME does not support wildcards, etc. Is anyone doing
something similar? Thanks, Tim
