Hi,

We are faced with requests to send files thru FTP and the destination file name should have DateTime Stamp in it. Though we can write a program to accomplish this, I want to know if FTP has a utility which takes care of this?

Thanks

No, it doesn't. You'll have to write the code.

I remember posting a question to IBM a few years ago asking them why the FTP program couldn't use some of the standard system variables. Never had a response, though.

While FTP doesn't have a utility, IBM does have program ezacfsm1 that will probably be in your linklst. Note the way I use it may not be what you want (one job submitting another job).

Code:
//GL4MJOB JOB (6496,TECH),'AUTOJC',CLASS=T,                       
// MSGCLASS=T,NOTIFY=&SYSUID                                       
//*--------------------------------------------------             
//* TRANSLATE SYMBOLS LIKE STC'S CAN                               
//*--------------------------------------------------             
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=EZACFSM1                                       
//SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=(*,INTRDR)                                     
//SYSIN DD DATA,DLM=@@                                             
//GL4MJB JOB (6496,TECH),'AUTOJC',CLASS=T,                         
// MSGCLASS=T,NOTIFY=&SYSUID                                       
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=IEFBR14                                       
//FILE01 DD DSN=&SYSUID..D&LYYMMDD..T&LHHMMSS.&&LPARNAME,         
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                                       
// UNIT=SYSDA,                                                     
// SPACE=(CYL,(10,10),RLSE),                                       
// DCB=(LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=0)                               
//FILE02 DD DSN=&SYSUID..D&WDAY..T&WDAY..&JOBNAME,                 
// DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE),                                       
// UNIT=SYSDA,                                                     
// SPACE=(CYL,(10,10),RLSE),                                       
// DCB=(LRECL=80,RECFM=FB,BLKSIZE=0)
