I've done it in the past but i guess I've lost some brain cells along the way. I use a VAX VMS system to FTP from SIMTEL20. I know the file type has to be set to 8 bit. ( quote "TYPE L 8") However, the VAX chokes on files > 40K. The systems people tell me that the VAX sees the transfer as a string unless I use the /IMAGE modifier in the get command. Well, when I follow the suggestion, I get larger files but when un'ARCing, the result is trash. Take pity on a senile ??. Please help. Ed Dzierzak HSL001@MUVMS3
