Hi all,

Throught the File aid for MVS (FAM) and then 8 (View) i can view the the deatils of the copy book like fieds, field number, starting position, ending position, and lenght.

Is there by any means i can directly FTP all the deatils (field, field number, starting position, ending position, and lenght) it to the excel sheet.

Thanks and regards,
Naven N

I can't remember much about File Aid, but in File Manager you can create a template dataset that can be saved that gives you the details you require. Not sure about FileAid, perhaps you can have a look to see if there is some sort of Template facility that does the same thing.

Sorry I couldn't be more help.

Hi,

Did you try to "generate" JCL using "PRINT" option of Fileaid? And then FTP the output from that JCL?

Anju... sorry, I can't remember, it's been a while since I used Fileaid. We have FileManager for z/OS (by IBM) where I work and that creates a dataset with the details in...........but that's not much help to you !!! Sorry..
