How about NFT/32 from Minisoft,
I think easy and fast Network file transfer tool between PC vs. HP3000.

Please help!  Any and all suggestions are welcome.  Please include any
questions that we should ask our vendor.

Here's where we need help:
We have files (4 GB) that have been created in a COBOL system and stored on
a HP3000 running the MPE / IX operating system.  The data needs to converted
to an ASCII file in a readable media by a PC system.  Our vendor, who
manages the data, is telling us that it takes about 48 hours to download the
data (they use an application called REFLEXIONS) to a PC.  Is this accurate?
Is there a faster way to do this?  Apparently, they are unable to give us
the complete data files and subsequently, we have been receiving partial
data.  It has been difficult to append this data to our existing tables and
de-duplicate the data.

Can you provide any hints or solutions?

Thanks in advance,


Bob Rohlin
