Second, you could try to ftp to a preallocated dataset. Or use Total Commander.

> This is super annoying as I'm looking to upload hundreds of PTF

> I've used quote site lrecl=80 but when the first line of R1235.txt is 81
> columns, how many ever lines the file has, FTP-ing it from desktop to
> mainframe brings in only the first line.
> Usually, I get around this but just making sure the first record stops

> Easy to do when dealing with only a handful of files..

> Help! What's the best way to forcefully truncate the broken .txt files
> at 80 columns so I can transfer them with ease.
> No, I can't setup SMPE RECEIVE ORDER. Fixes get downloaded to a PC, then
> FTP'd from PC to mainframe.
