That's how we had planned to do it.
But we got "NorthPointed" and that interrupted testing our FTP script.
I created the following batch file (ftpcmd.bat):
%windir%\ftp.exe -s:%f0
goto done
open ***Host name omitted***
***User name omitted***
***Password omitted***
lcd d:\website\htdocs\stockgolf\htdocs\data
ascii
get eod.txt
bye
:done
@echo off
cls
exit
I *believe* (but have not tested) the AT is something like:
AT 02:00 /every:M,T,W,Th,F,S,Su "ftpcmd.bat"
I'd appreciate any corrections to my plan....
best, paul
