Thanks Alan, I was wondering about phrasing, so the hint about server/ftp software
changes helpful.
Lucky for us our FTP exchange with customers is mostly through our "parent company".

We have a program that searches for these phrases However - each system can supply a different version of "Transfer complete" or "bytes transferred" so you have be aware of that situation AND we have had sites change their server or ftp software - and this phrase changed without us realizing until we had ftp sessions fail

Gary,
I created a process for SFTP, using a CL and RPGLE pgm., using the output spoolfile.
I'm sure the same concept could be applied to FTP.
Instead of looking for "Uploading" or "Fetching"
Search for either "Transfer complete" or "bytes transferred" for a success.
0033.00 226 Transfer complete, 1,368.4 KB/s
0034.00 327888 bytes transferred in 0.229 seconds. Transfer rate 1434.860 KB/sec.

Gary,
Others here will suggest that you use Scott Kelments' FTPAPI utility that will give you finer control and total error handling.
If you want to process the FTP Output Log, I would suggest that you create a Source File and prior to the FTP command issue an OVRDBF command as
follows:
OVRDBF FILE(OUTPUT) TOFILE(your file) TOMBR(your member).
The file name OUTPUT is used by FTP to write the output log.

I am looking for a quick way to process output FTP session "logs".
We have a "never-ending" job which monitors for customer deliveries
which are ready and creates and sends an EDI 856 ASN (actually an
imitation) via FTP.
One need is to know if the FTP was successful.
This job creates two spool files for each FTP step, one with input
commands and the other with output. During the course of a day there
are over 200 of these files so I need to read the most recent FTP
output spool, which can be identified by the three parts of file:
Name, Device or Queue and User Data.
My current idea is to scan for 'bytes transferred'
I've worked with spool API's but not here and not for some time but a
link to the API name and any/all hints will be much appreciated.
