Although I had requested ASCII mode (since a .bsq file should have been BINSCIIed), the accompaning message said that "Image" mode had been forced and a binary transfer used. The file I received (93 blocks) has no header, is not recognized by BINSCII, GSCii, or GS.Shrinkit, and seems to be unusable. What went wrong? Is there some specification that has to be set before the transfer? My end is a VMS system, files coming in as RECEIVE files. ALBRO@NIEHS.BITNET
