Hi --

I'm using the FTP tool to send files to a mainframe computer via a Visual Basic client. Sending the file is successful, however, the file on the mainframe is not the same name as when I send it - the name getting prefixed with the username I specified in the login method. Any ideas???? Is there something I can do on the client-side, or is it a mainframe issue??

Example:

Ftp1.Store "TUSRS00.BILLFILE.T457052B.D110100", "c:\billfile.txt"

Once it gets to the mainframe it looks like this:
"HOT2USER.BILLFILE.etc...."

Hi,
That is not something that our control is doing.
I would contact the administrators of the server to see if they can offer an explanation.

If you enclose the file name in single quotes, it will be stored as you entered it. If you do not use the quotes the IBM assumes it is adding the file to your area and adds your userID.
