Re: FTP script variables

No. I have done this using TAAOOLS a long time ago, before QSH was
available. I may just copy the one text member and change the put
command. Just to get the vendor whining down. I had an experience
with a contractor 5 years ago that got me in hot water. This time, I
am not in direct line of fire. My boss is, and I have not seen him,
in 15 years, be anything but congenial. Not in this case. Makes me
glad to not be prime contact. Just how bad does a vendor have to be
to get Mister Rogers ticked off?

John -

In a CL program you could build the FTP statements on the fly and use the
QSH ECHO command to pipe them to a source file, then use it as the FTP
script.

Need an example?

That definitely works.  Another method I have used in the past was
TAATOOLS to build the script dynamically.  Just seemed so dumb that I
know the name of the file to send and nothing else changes, then to
have to monkey around with building scripts of editing them.

No big deal.

John,
What I have done in the past is use a CL program to execute the FTP
script.
Since I know exactly where in the script record the file name is found, I
have a program that takes the variable name and writes it into the script
record.
