> The "200 representation..." message is normal, It's not normal to FTP an XMI file with EBCDIC->ASCII based code page translation; the OP should use Binary. On the FTP back he needs to have RECFM=FB,LRECL=80.

I just tried it and got that message - right before it downloaded the members. What is the sequence of commands you're running? Are you doing a "cd" into the PDS you're trying to download then just doing a "mget *" or are you doing a "mget pds(*)"?
