    I  obtained  a  utility  from  a friend at University of Guelph on
    Canada called UTIL3.EXE which we  have  used  to  transfer  binary
    files  between  Finland  and Canada. It may be that he has already
    donated it to SIMTEL20 archives. It has worked we for us and  that
    is  making  transfers between IBM/CMS and VAX/VMS which may be the
    worse of  all  possible  situations  for  getting  files  trashed.
    UTIL3.EXE also has the added bonus that it will also do a UUDECODE
    for you if you want.
