 |  
				| Hi, 
 I have a Variable Length ASCII file , which I want to get onto Mainframe in a VB format maintaining the same record length.
 What would be the best way?
 
 Eg: ASCII Flat File
 
 1st Record : 165 bytes
 2nd Record: 250 bytes
 
 Any suggestions are welcome!
 
 Thanks,
 Sodoku

 Pre-allocate the file with max lrecl on the mainframe and use FTP to transmit the data
