CFFTP and 80 byte wide files
I have an application where I need to FTP up a file that is 80 bytes wide. It appears to me that the standard file width for CFFTP is 255 bytes wide. Is there a way to control this with CFFTP?

Re: CFFTP and 80 byte wide files
It has to do with the width of the file. I've figured out that I've got to do it from the command line with a CFEXECUTE.

Re: CFFTP and 80 byte wide files
I think someone is talking Chinese here...the width of a file really on has relevance if it is an image (even then it's not the width of the file...). Otherwise there is not a width property for any other kind of file that I have ever heard of. Perhaps you could explain further Dave? jon ...envisioning a new yomama joke having to do with wide files... - Original Message - From: Dave Hannum [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: CF-Talk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 01, 2001 2:13 PM Subject: Re: CFFTP and 80 byte wide files It has to do with the width of the file.

Re: CFFTP and 80 byte wide files
It's mainframe jibbirish - I don't understand other that the mainfram formats to 255 bytes wide unless you specify otherwise. That's what they tell me. Anyway, you overcome this with arguements sent with your FTP, so I'm doing it via CFEXECUTE and the Windows FTP so I can pass it the command to make the file stay 80 bytes wide. I don't really understand except that it is working now.

Re: CFFTP and 80 byte wide files
Are you talking about the length of the lines in your text file not being over 80 chars. long? If so, this is from way back in the good old days when the punch cards used to program the computers were 80 chars. wide. Also, COBOL has some issues with certain things being in certain columns and only so many (80) chars. wide, for a similar reason. If you are uploading a text file to a mainframe that is going to be read by some legacy app., written in COBOL or something, then this makes sense. If that's not what you are talking about, I have no idea. Glad it's working though.
