If ftp'ing to a MVS file did you issue the quote site command? Can you look at the file on the Windows box? Does it have CRLF or just LF as record terminators? If it has just LF, then you need to convert it to a DOS style file, that is terminated with CRLF. When you ftp to the mainframe are you ftp’ing to a MVS file or to the Unix System Services?

Have you looked at what the differences in the files are between the two methods you have used to retrieve the files?

I was advised to search for the solution with in SFTP zone running on Windows machine. I can put your suggestion forward to my company, but can't guarantee its implementation at this point. Do you think any usage of parameters in SFTP script to correct the problem? Hi KarlG,
