Hi nawanandana,

well, function GUI_UPLOAD will not work as a background process (nor will GUI_DOWNLOAD), because these functions need the presentation server to be available, in order to get/put the file. Instead, use OPEN/CLOSE DATASET or FTPs if the source file is allocated in some cluster available thru FTP (not your local drives).

I hope it helps. Best regards,

Alvaro
