>Yet, I wonder why the OP may want trailing blanks on z/OS and not on AIX.
Just guessing here: Its not that they want trailing blanks, they have it because the data set is RECFM=FB. The FTP truncate option removed them and that is why they are used to not have trailing blanks after the transfer. If it is an option, change the data set on z/OS to RECFM=VB. But this may require a change of the application writing the data set in the first place. -- Peter Hunkeler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
