So i can easily build a script to GET a file from remote server by

matching

it for exact filename specified in script.
Ex. GET FILENAME1_20180619.TXT

But what is the syntax to GET a file name that would already be in a

format

such as this? I am not concerned with "qualifying" the date value

unless

of course there is a fairly simple way to do that... but simply being

sure

the structure is sound by "qualifying" the filename and then being sure

a

true Date exists thereafter...

And to make it a little more fun, consider filenames such as...

FILENAME1_YYYYMMDD_CUSTOMER#_HHMMSS.txt
where real value might be...
FILENAME1_20180619_12345_022134.txt

I would use the FTP client APIs from RPG/ILE to drive such a
process.


Sincerely,

Dave Clark
