Hi, Steve
1.      In win2000 box, schedule a FTP and get the data from HP3000 (use AT
command or scheduler to repeat)
2.      You could write a small VB program that reads parameters from the
input file(create by FTP Get)
3.      In a same VB program, call DLL(add reference)  passing these
parameters from input and process data and write back to the output
file.
4.      FTP back output file to HP3000.
5.      save this batch file (FTP Get, DLL Call and FTP Put) as batch3k.cmd
6.      Error checking process and frequency on running this job has to
tune….
