Thanks. That's what I get for cutting and pasting from text files, IMs or Outlook mail items. When I gave the user the parm I didn't actually type it in. At least you got me to find a good hex editor for Windows. Thank you again... I knew it was some silly mistake here.

There's "en dash" (–) character before the resumesupport, not a regular dash (-).

Adding log

Release 5.5.1, I have users running 5.5.1 successfully using the switch but one user seems unable. I can not recreate the issue but I am running 5.5.6 myself.

I'm guessing they already cd'ed because they do find the code.
Put command:

PUT "–resumesupport=off" "-nopreservetime" "H:\DataExtract\KCB_Extract\KCBNK_F.TXT" "/ftadv:B=0,SPACE_UNIT=CYLS,PRI=500,SEC=500,O=VB,R=500/__'EAS.T.CR0A9N99.CLNT.BUDX.KCBNK.FP(+1)'"

The ftadv business is Tectia for zOS - not at issue here, I do the same thing trying to recreate error.

Full log/script attached. What is the issue with this? It looks like it ought to work. We're not seeing what we're doing wrong. Thanks
