PUTTY is no better than OMVS or ISHELL in doing this task. In fact, how is the Unix command prompt useful for this op, who doesn't understand Unix directories, ls, cd, pipes, rmdir, case sensitivity and more. For vendors dealing with people of various skill levels, OMVS is critical because we know it's easily available and we don't need to teach UNIX. We can easily provide the basic commands, It is far easier than teaching PUTTY or ISHELL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
