OK, wc3270 defaults its equivalent of FTP (basically good old IND$FILE) to the equivalent of Sbdataconn=(ibm-037,??????) [I've no idea what they consider the codepage of the ASCII source and I do not have FTP avaiable to me] I've suggested to the user incorrectly to use Sbdataconn=(ibm-1047,iso8859-1) and asked her to repeat the upload with ibm-037 which may solve the problem, but I do not know yet what would happen in the target system. If that works, then I guess I'll have to suggest a trial and error!

You probabably can't. If you had the luxury of using z/OS FTP instead of wc2370 (2370?) you could specify "quote site SBDATACONN=(page,page)". I don't know whether wc2370 has similar facilities. Even so, the final result might not be compatible among different EBCDIC code pages. I hate EBCDIC!
