VM UnZip question
System is running z/VM Version 4 Release 3.0, service level 0301 (32-bit) , one of the app programmers asked this question ( his email is below) , I have never used it so I do not know, any help with this is appreciated. Hi Augie; I figured out how to get the 1.9 million records loaded. Now I have another question, do we have an mainframe unzip module???The data they want me to load is zipped on the PC and I need to open it up to convert it from ASCII to EBCDIC. I know we have the zip module because we use it. Jack Jack M Schwier
Re: VM UnZip question
The PKZIP company might still offer a pkzip for CMS; they had a download and free trial period too. http://www.pkware.com/ -Original Message- From: The IBM z/VM Operating System [mailto:ib...@listserv.uark.edu] On Behalf Of August Carideo Sent: Thursday, January 15, 2009 1:38 PM To: IBMVM@LISTSERV.UARK.EDU Subject: VM UnZip question System is running z/VM Version 4 Release 3.0, service level 0301 (32- bit) , one of the app programmers asked this question ( his email is below) , I have never used it so I do not know, any help with this is appreciated.

Re: VM UnZip question
I'm not certain, but I think PKWARE dropped VM/CMS support last fall, so you might not be able to get new copies or keys.

Re: VM UnZip question
Unless you are doing something fancy (passwords?) on the PC side, the fre e ARCUTIL might still be useful in UNZIPing a file on VM. Here is a link to the packages available for download from the Slippery Rock University. http://zvm.sru.edu/~DOWNLOAD/ /Tom Kern On Thu, 15 Jan 2009 13:38:10 -0500, August Carideo august.cari...@avon.c om wrote: System is running z/VM Version 4 Release 3.0, service level 0301 (32-bit ) , one of the app programmers asked this question ( his email is below) , I have never used it so I do not know, any help with this is appreciated .

Re: VM UnZip question
You can still get an old version of Info-zip for CMS. I found one here: ftp://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/tools/zip/info-zip/VMCMS/I haven't used this in several years/VM releases, but it used to work well enough.
