I am trying to FTP a file that is Wnidoze ASCII to VM without having it translated to EBCDIC. In this case, the PC is the client and VM, the host. I have tried:
* BIN - it gets translated * TYPE A - it gets translated * SITE AUTOTRANS OFF - I get a message saying that the SITE command is invalid. The same applies to using an abbreviation for AUTOTRANS. * MODE B - invalid command * SITE MODE B (out of frustration) - invalid command * Rename the file, changing the extension from .CSV to .BIN - it almost works after a PIPE < fine | deblock string x0d0a | > file The files I am transferring are CSV files. The values are contained in double quotes with comma separators. Null values are indicated by two double quotes. There is another problem - any of the FTPs that transfer data strip the quotes surrounding the data values - not good for values containing a comma. Not good for something expecting a pair of quotes as a null value indicator. What, if anything, can I do to resolve this? Regards, Richard Schuh
