How do I send a specifc string...

[TheRealDeal]

I am needing to send a very specific character string to a mainframe system and I'm not sure how to put it together. So here goes, it needs to be:

PUT F:\APPS\GL\GL.TXT 'P000220.Y2K.M01220D4.D045(+1)'

I will need to press the Enter Key after the string is complete. Also, the single quotes must be part of the above string. Help.

As long as you surround it by double quotes it should be ok. It should include the single quotes within the string... I just tried the following & the string was generated exatly as you showed above:

Dim s as String
s= "PUT F:\APPS\GL\GL.TXT 'P000220.Y2K.M01220D4.D045(+1)'" James Goodman
