More than likely, when you transferred the file to your VMS system it came
over as a binary stream file, and now you are trying to read it as an ASCII
file.
If you are familiar with FDLs you can use
$EXCHANGE/NETWORK/FDL=<fdl_file> <make_input_file> <make_output_file>
Or the command :
$SET FILE/ATTRIBUTE=(<file_attribute_list>) <make_file_name>
If you don't know how to use these commands and are not familiar with VMS
record attributes. Do these two commands, and post the output :
$ANALYZE/RMS/FDL/OUTPUT=SYS$OUTPUT <make_file_name>
$DUMP/BLOCK=COUNT=1 <make_file_name>
And I'll send back the command to make it an ASCII RMS Text file.
